Bengal slow loris
The Bengal slow loris is a small, nocturnal primate with big eyes and dense, woolly fur. It lives in forests across South and Southeast Asia, and it is the largest of the slow loris species. It is endangered, mainly because it is sold in animal markets and used in traditional medicine.1

Jinsi ya kumtambua
- Dense, woolly brown-grey fur on its back, with white fur on its underside1
- A dark stripe running up to the top of its head, which does not reach the ears1
- Pale forearms and feet, with limbs that vary from brown to nearly white1
- A round head, flat face, large eyes that show a bright orange eye shine, and short ears1
- Body and head length of 26 to 38 cm1
Mara nyingi huchanganywa na: The Sunda slow loris is similar in size but is smaller and tawny- or golden-brown, without the pale head, nape and shoulders. The pygmy slow loris is much smaller, with dark brown fur, longer ears and no dark dorsal stripe.1
Nguvu ya sumu
Sumu hutoka kupitia meno yake ya sumu au meno anapouma.
Sumu yake hufanya nini?
A small gland on the inside of the elbow produces a pungent, clear, oily toxin. The animal wipes this fluid onto its toothcomb as a defence. The main chemical in it is m-cresol, a phenolic compound, and the mixture contains several dozen volatile chemicals.1
Ana hatari gani kwa watu?
Hatari kwa watu: InaumaInaweza kuuma sana, lakini karibu kamwe si jambo zito.
Akiuma
- Osha jeraha vizuri na utafute msaada wa kitabibu.
Daima piga namba ya dharura kwanza (112, 000, 911). Huu ni mwongozo wa jumla wa huduma ya kwanza, si ushauri wa kitabibu. Misingi ya huduma ya kwanza
Kaa salama
- Kamwe usimguse, kumkamata wala kumchokoza mnyama wa porini, hata akiwa mdogo, na hata akionekana amelala au amekufa.
- Mpe nafasi. Ukikutana naye, tulia, rudi nyuma polepole na umwache aende zake.
- Akikuuma: tulia, usitikisike, piga namba yako ya dharura (112, 000, 911) au nenda hospitali haraka. Kumbuka alivyoonekana, picha husaidia.
Hakuwindi wewe. Hutumia sumu yake kukamata chakula au kujilinda, na hupendelea zaidi kujificha. Zaidi kuhusu kukaa salama

Ana kasi gani?
Ukweli
Its toxin may carry information about a loris's sex, age, health and social status, so it may act as a form of scent communication.1
It is the largest species of slow loris.1
