Excuse me, could you please clarify for me the staggering number of pangolins that are tragically killed annually? I'm quite concerned about the conservation status of these unique and endangered creatures, and I'm hoping to get a better understanding of the magnitude of the issue. It's a pressing matter that requires immediate attention and action, and I'd appreciate any information you can provide.
