Pangolins are not omnivores. They are considered insectivores because they only eat ants and termites.
Some types of plant adaptations include structural adaptations like thorns and spines for protection, physiological adaptations like succulence to store water in arid environments, and behavioral adaptations like curling leaves to reduce water loss in high heat. Other adaptations include seed dispersal mechanisms, root systems for nutrient acquisition, and flowering times to synchronize with pollinators.
Some examples of behavioral adaptations include migration, hibernation, social behavior such as cooperation or communication, and mating rituals. These adaptations help organisms survive and reproduce in their specific environments.
Pangolins live in Africa and Asia.
Pangolins don't have teeth.
There is no standard collective noun for 'pangolins' (scaly anteaters) because they are solitary creatures, they don't form groups. Pangolins only come together for mating, so the appropriate collective noun would be a pair of pangolins.
Pangolins do not have flippers; instead, they have strong, clawed forelimbs adapted for digging and climbing. Their limbs are used primarily for burrowing into the ground to find ants and termites, which are their primary food sources. While pangolins are capable of swimming, they do not possess specialized adaptations like flippers for this purpose. Instead, they rely on their limbs to paddle through the water when necessary.
They are homologous structures. Both are scales, but snakes use them to move and pangolins use them as defense

The main predators for Pangolins are Humans. Esp. in China, pangolin meat is a delicacy and people have many misconceptions about it. Pangolins are also in great demand in China because their meat is considered a delicacy and some Chinese believe pangolin scales reduce swelling, promote blood circulation and help breast-feeding women produce milk. So they are being hunted/killed in large numbers and are badly endangered now.
Pangolins or scaly anteaters are mammals in the order Pholidota. There is only one extant family (Manidae) and one genus (Manis) of pangolins, comprising eight species. (There are also a number of extinct taxa within Pholidota.) Pangolins have large scales on their skin and are found in tropical regions of Africa and Asia. The name "pangolin" is derived from the Malay word pengguling ("something that rolls up"). In older classifications, pangolins were classified with various other orders, for example Edentata, which includes the ordinary anteaters and the similar-looking armadillos. Newer genetic evidence, however, indicates that the closest living relatives of pangolins are the Carnivora, with which they form a clade, the Ferae. Some paleontologists have classified the pangolins in the order Cimolesta, together with several extinct groups.
