| "What is this thing?" |
Back in January while the teams were still with us, we bought a young pangolin. My family had one as a pet when I was growing up and I remembered it being pretty fun. We kept it inside two baskets that were bungeed together. During the day we'd let it climb around in a nearby guava tree to look for ants or in the rambutan tree right behind our house. After about a day it got pretty friendly, to the point where it would follow us and climb up our legs if we allowed it. One afternoon we supervised a game of tag in which the pangolin (we called him Junior) was chasing Soleil around back behind the guesthouse and Soleil would run a short ways, turn around to see if he was still coming then run some more. Unfortunately, Junior loosed his bonds one afternoon when he was tied up on our back porch while we were busy with the team and when we returned he was nowhere to be found. He made for a good time, though, for the few days we had him.
