Over the past 150 years, several zoos have attempted to maintain pangolins (Manis spp). Most of these zoos have not succeeded in maintaining these animals for long periods, associated largely with dietary problems. This study reviews the historic records of captive pangolins. The dietary husbandry of pangolins in Taipei Zoo is discussed in detail. Zoo Biol 26:223–230, 2007. c 2007 Wiley-Liss, Inc. Keywords: scaly anteater; Manidae; captive feeding INTRODUCTION Pangolin comes from the Malayan word ‘Pengolin,’ which means that the animal can roll up into a bullet. Although quite common in zoos before the 1970s, pangolins are now almost unknown to visitors and are exhibited infrequently in zoos. These animals have historically been difficult to maintain, with most captive animals dying within a short period after capture. There are seven species of pangolins; all are of the Class Mammalia, Order Pholidota, Family Manidae, and Genus Manis. Three Asian species exist (Chinese ÃCorrespondence to: Ci Wen Yang, Nutritionist, Animal Department, Taipei Zoo, 30Sec.
