The Pangolin has no teeth, they eat ants and termites. Their front paws have long sharp claws used to tear open termite mounds, and ant hills, both above and below the ground. Their long tongue and salivary glands are adapted for catching them. The Pangolins stomach is designed for grinding the ants and termites they eat using small stones and sand.
