The Sunda pangolin (Manis javanica) plays a crucial role in ecosystem balance by naturally controlling ant and termite populations. Native to Peninsular Malaysia, these creatures inhabit forests, gardens, and plantations, including oil palm and rubber estates. The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List classifies the Sunda pangolin as “Critically Endangered,” signaling an extremely high risk of extinction in the wild.

马来穿山甲（学名：Manis javanica），又称巽他穿山甲，通过调控蚂蚁和白蚁种群在生态平衡中发挥着关键作用。它们主要栖息于马来西亚半岛的森林，也出没于花园和油棕、橡胶等种植园中。国际自然保护联盟（IUCN）濒危物种红色名录已将马来穿山甲列为”极度濒危”物种，意味着它们在野外面临极高的灭绝风险。
