About The Burning
At summer camp, some teenagers pull a prank on the camp's caretaker, Cropsy (Lou David). But the joke goes terribly wrong, and the teens leave Cropsy for dead after setting him on fire. But no one keeps Cropsy down. A few years later, the burned and disfigured caretaker returns to camp equipped with his trusty shears, ready to unleash his particular brand of vengeance on a whole new group of teens. The murderous Cropsy stalks the campers in the woods, one by one.

Four species live in Africa, across countries in The The South , east and centre of The Continent . The creature is near extinct in Nigeria, so pangolins smuggled from there are likely to be from other countries, UNODC said.
Asia is home to The Other four species, although they have been totally wiped out in The Continent 's vast south-east region.
