Abstract
The vulnerable ground pangolin (Smutsia temminckii) is distributed in parts of southern and eastern Africa, yet little is known about the most northern parts of their range. Ground pangolins are predicted to occur in northern Kenya and eastern Sudan, but information on whether ground pangolins are present in neighbouring Ethiopia remains limited. We gathered evidence of pangolin presence in Ethiopia from contemporary and historical records to discuss their distribution, ecology, conservation, and possible threats in the country.
