On Friday (3 May), a member of the Singapore Wildlife Sightings Facebook group shared an adorable sighting of a pangolin in Singapore.
The wild mammal was seen waddling along a muddy path, seemingly unfazed by others in his way.
Nature lovers on Facebook gushed over the rare sighting of the chonky pangolin.
The video posted on the Singapore Wildlife Sightings Facebook group showed the chubby pangolin slowly waddling along a muddy path.
The pangolin was seemingly “oblivious” to the people filming it.
With its stumpy legs and glossy exterior, the mammal made its way off the path and onto a bed of fallen leaves.

Others pointed out the pangolin’s unusually plump size may be due to its “organic” diet.
