Feed for culturing pangolins

Abstract

The invention relates to a feed for culturing pangolins. The feed is prepared from the following components in percentage by weight: 45-55 percent of termites, 10-15 percent of fungus garden of termites, 20-30 percent of ants, 10-15 percent of shrimp shell meal, 1-2 percent of common andrographis herb, 0.5-1.8 percent of radix codonopsis pilosulae, 0.2-0.5 percent of prepared common monkshood daughter root and 0.5-1 percent of licorice. The feed for culturing the pangolins is rich in nutritional ingredients and a great deal of amino acid, protein, trace elements and the like and is capable of promoting growth of the pangolins. Meanwhile, according to the feed for culturing the pangolins disclosed by the invention, by adding Chinese herbal medicinal ingredients into the feed, the pangolins can be prevented from getting ill in the feeding process, and the survival rate and the growth speed of the pangolins are increased.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of breeding, and in particular relates to a feed for breeding pangolins. Background technique [0002] Pangolins live in tropical and subtropical regions. Generally, it inhabits moist places such as foothills, hills, shrubs, mixed forests, small stones mixed with mud. Digging holes to live in, mostly building holes in muddy areas. The tunnel is long and has a nest at the end. During the day, they often hide in caves and block them with soil. Go out for food at night, be active and able to climb trees. When encountering an enemy or being frightened, it often curls up into a ball. Its main food is termites, but also ants and their larvae, bees, wasps and other insect larvae. Breed once a year, with 1 to 2 young per litter.

Problems solved by technology

[0003] Pangolin armor is an important traditional Chinese medicine. There are dozens of medicines made from pangolin. However, with the development of mountain forests, the number of pangolins is decreasing. Pangolins are national second-class protected animals. Now people consider Artificial breeding is carried out to cultivate pangolins. Pangolins mainly eat termites. The production of termites is small and the price is high, which increases the cost of breeding. At the same time, due to the limited range of activities of pangolins during the breeding process, the mortality rate of pangolins is relatively high.
