SARUAHA, CHITWAN, NEPAL: Athena, one of Conservation Canines’ pack of conservation sniffer dogs, takes a break from the hard work of sniffing out pangolin scat. Her work is helping scientists develop a DNA reference map of the species, which will allow law enforcement officials to better target poaching hotspots. Good girl. Photo by Conservation Canines.
