Not one, but two mama-and-baby pangolin sightings were reported on social media on Jan. 9 night.

In both cases, the baby pangolin was seen clinging cutely to its mother's tail as she crossed the road in the Yio Chu Kang area.

However, it is unclear if it was the same mama-baby pair.

Crossing a road

The first sighting was shared on Reddit by user u/prolix_verbosity.

The clip showed the Sunda pangolin crossing a road with her baby on her back.

The exact location was not revealed.

Spotted at MRT station

The second sighting was shared on Facebook group Singapore Wildlife Sightings by user Francis Poh.

According to his post, the mama and juvenile pangolin were spotted at 1am on Jan. 9 around Yio Chu Kang.

The pair was seen crossing a road, before making for a neighbouring footpath.

What to do when you see a pangolin

While pangolins are shy and will not attack humans, people are advised to leave pangolins alone instead of attempting to touch, chase, or corner them, which can frighten them.

If you encounter a pangolin that appears to be in any danger, e.g. if they are found in the middle of a busy road, you can contact NParks or Acres.

If you witness any illegal trading or poaching, you should take photo or video evidence of the traps, snares, nets, trapped animals, poachers, and/or the vehicle license plate number.

You can also call NParks' hotline at 1800-471-7300 or contact the police.
