The tree pangolin (Phataginus tricuspis), also known as the white-bellied or three-cusped pangolin, is a small, scaly mammal native to equatorial Africa, particularly in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. It is the most common of the African forest pangolins and can grow up to 43 cm in body length, with a tail measuring up to 62 cm. Its distinctive dark brown scales, made of keratin, have three points, giving the species its name. Tree pangolins are nocturnal, semi-arboreal creatures that inhabit lowland tropical forests and savanna mosaics, and they can adapt to human-modified landscapes like plantations.
