Meet the filmmakers behind the ground-breaking new documentary that is fighting to save the pangolin - PangolinAfrica EyeOfThePangolin
available for streaming onlineAward-winning South African filmmakers Bruce Young and Johan Vermeulen are on a mission to capture the four species of African pangolin on film to raise awareness of these shy, beguiling creatures and put a stop to the horrific poaching and illegal trade that is driving them to extinction.How did the Eye of the Pangolin project come about? Johan approached me in 2017 with his dream to make a film about pangolins.
Best part of the shoot was being able to get close to and meet these remarkable animals. They are unquestionably some of the charismatic creatures in the wild today. Then it was a real privilege to spend time with the people on the ground who are working so tirelessly to help save them – the researchers, vets and veterinary nurses, pangolin monitors and people actively involved in campaigns to rescue them from the illegal wildlife trade and return them to the wild.
