Gentleness embodied
Thank you so much for all your views, comments and favourites. It means the world to me to be able to share with you, to see the world through your eyes and to learn from you. Flickr always inspires me to do better. We met this adorable creature at Lopburi Zoo yesterday.
All Loris species are either classified as “vulnerable” or “endangered”. The exotic pet trade and diminishing habitat are the two factors mostly responsible for the sad state of affairs. These creatures are very slow and gentle by nature, and that makes them an easy catch. They lick a poison gland under their armpit to attain a poisonous bite. The poison is also spread over their coat to protect themselves against predators. They are nocturnal and forage mostly at night for plants, insects and eggs.
