Pangolins are mammals that reproduce sexually, with females giving birth to a single offspring after a gestation period of about 70 to 140 days, depending on the species. Mothers typically give birth to a well-developed baby that is able to cling to her back shortly after birth. Pangolins are unique in that they have a relatively low reproductive rate, often producing just one young per year. The mother cares for the young until they are old enough to fend for themselves.

How do pangolin reproduce?

Pangolins are solitary animals that typically come together only for mating. The female pangolin has a gestation period of about 70 to 140 days, after which she usually gives birth to a single offspring, although twins can occur in rare cases. The mother nurses her young for several months, during which the baby clings to her back while she forages for food. After a few months, the juvenile pangolin begins to explore on its own but may stay with the mother for up to a year.
