Welcome to the life of the Lorisidae!
The slender loris (Loris tardigradus ssp.), a small-bodied nocturnal prosimian primate, is one of the least known of extant primate species. The purpose of this homepage is to give a brief, and perhaps too simplified, description of the habits , habitats, and other available information including husbandry advice, regarding this shy and cryptic species.

Handrearing lorises and pottos
"Some surrogate imitating the motherґs body (artificial or genuine fur, plush animal) is necessary for the infantґs wellbeing. Hawes and Ogden (1998 / in press) recommend prewashing of surrogates and use only of those not continually shedding and simulation of maternal body temperature by a hot water bottle; they also recommend additional use of blankets as a hiding place."
