The Sumatran Leafbird is a vibrant songbird native exclusively to the lush forests of Sumatra. Celebrated for their striking green plumage and melodious calls, these birds play a vital role in their ecosystem. However, rampant trapping for the cage bird trade and habitat loss have led to a rapid decline in their population. To protect the Sumatran Leafbird, we urge you to boycott products linked to deforestation. Use your wallet as a weapon to fight for their survival each time you shop. #BoycottPalmOil #Boycott4Wildlife

White-bellied Pangolin Phataginus tricuspis
The White-bellied Pangolin also commonly known as the Tree Pangolin are fascinating creatures akin to giant pest controllers, estimated to consume around 70 million insects per year. #Pangolins don’t have teeth, rather they have scales lining their stomachs which aid them in the digestion of food that is swallowed whole. Baby pangolins often ride on their mother’s backs and and are known as pango pups. They are able to use their tails to support their body weight and can walk upright on their hind legs.
They are often captured and killed for the illegal #poaching trade in abandoned palm oil plantations in their native homelands in #WestAfrica. Now classified as #Endangered by the IUCN, White-bellied Pangolins face a terrifying future. The dual threats of industrial-scale trafficking and rampant #deforestation for agriculture—especially #palmoil plantations—are pushing them towards extinction Help them every time you shop and #Boycottpalmoil #Boycott4Wildlife
