Abstract: Habitat selection by Chinese pangolin (Manis pentadactyla) in winter was studied in Dawuling Natural Reserve, Maoming City of Guangdong Province, China, from December 1999 through February 2001.The objective of this study was to determine the pangolin’s habitat requirement in winter during poor environmental conditions. The dominant habitat of this Reserve was classified into 4 types, mixed coniferous and broadleaf forest (MCBF), evergreen broadleaf forest (EBF), coniferous forest (CF) and shrub forest (SF). The Chinese pangolin has a burrowing habit for preying on termites underground and resting in winter. Therefore, we can study its habitat selection depending on its burrow location. The surroundings’ factors at a burrow were divided into 10 categories and 31 subcategories. Forty-one burrows were recorded in 23 line transects which were established randomly in the Reserve, passing 4 different forest types of this Reserve. The pangolin’s preference intensity for each forest type was determined by means of formula PI = Nb / l, where PI refers to the pangolin’s preference index for each habitat, Nb represents the total number of burrows dug by pangolins in a certain fores
