DERA ISMAIL KHAN: A weird looking animal appeared in Dhikki area of the city, which frightened the local people.
This animal is pangolin with 4 feet in length and 1.5 feet high. The animal has fish-like stone-hard scales on its skin.
The animal is characterized by its shyness, as it ducks its head under the belly, watching people approaching near.
The animal’s hide is used in some countries in dressmaking. Also, pangolin is a favorable dish in China.
