它吃什么？

It eats mostly fruit, and also feeds on plant sap, gum and resin, which it obtains by scraping bark or gouging holes in it. It also eats large insects, snails, small birds and reptiles. In winter, its food is almost entirely plant exudates.1

怎样认出它

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

常被误认为： 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

咬伤

它咬的时候，毒液通过毒牙或牙齿出来。

它的毒液会造成什么？

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
