Javan slow loris
The Javan slow loris is a small, slow-moving primate that lives only on the western and central parts of the island of Java in Indonesia. It moves through the trees at night, creeping along vines and branches rather than leaping. It is critically endangered, mainly because it is captured for the pet trade.1

怎麼認出牠
- A distinct white diamond pattern on the forehead, made by a stripe that runs over the head and forks towards the eyes and ears1
- Yellowish-grey body with cream-coloured head, neck and shoulders1
- Weighs between 565 and 687 g, with a head-body length of about 29 cm1
- Moves slowly through vines and lianas rather than jumping between trees, and is active at night1
常被誤認為: It closely resembles the Bengal slow loris, which is similar in appearance, and the Sunda slow loris, which it was long considered a subspecies of. Rescue centres have sometimes misidentified it. It is larger than both the Sunda and Bornean slow lorises.1
毒液力量
咬的時候,毒液會從毒牙或牙齒出來。
牠對人有多危險?
對人的危險: 疼痛可能會非常痛,但幾乎從來不會很嚴重。
注意安全
- 絕對不要碰、抓或捉弄野生動物,就算是很小的動物,就算牠看起來在睡覺或已經死了也一樣。
- 給牠空間。如果遇到了,保持冷靜,慢慢往後退,讓牠自己離開。
- 如果被牠咬了:保持冷靜,保持不動,打緊急電話(112、000、911)或趕快去醫院。記住牠的樣子,有照片會很有幫助。
牠不是想來抓你。牠用毒液來捕捉食物或保護自己,而且牠更想躲起來。 更多安全知識

小知識
Local farmers have helped maintain mid-air walkways that conservationists built so the lorises can cross between treetops in cleared farmland. These walkways also serve as irrigation pipes.1
Unlike most primates, it sleeps curled up on exposed branches rather than in nest holes.1
It is the largest of the slow lorises found in Indonesia.1
It can move on the ground to cross open spaces in disturbed habitat.1
破解迷思
迷思: It has magical and curative properties.
真相: This is a myth. Even so, it is still sometimes used in traditional medicine in Indonesia, which adds to the pressure on the species.1
