The Philippine slow loris is a small primate with pale golden to red fur and large eyes. It lives in lowland forests, gardens and plantations on the north and east coasts of Borneo and in the Sulu Archipelago of the Philippines. It is special because it is one of the smallest slow lorises and one of the hardest to find in the wild.1

它吃什么？

Its diet is poorly studied, but it is suspected to eat more insects than most slow loris species. It has also been seen feeding on gum from a woody vine (liana).1

怎样认出它

Pale golden to red fur1
Low-contrast markings on the face and head, with no strong dark face mask1
Short, unfluffed body hair1
Consistently lacks a second upper incisor (front tooth)1
Small body, with a vestigial tail, round head and short ears; it is nocturnal and moves through the trees1

常被误认为： It is often confused with other slow lorises. The Bornean kayan slow loris (N. kayan) also has pale body colour, but it has a dark, high-contrast face mask and longer, fluffier fur. Its face markings are much fainter than those of N. kayan.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？

This animal has a gland on the inside of its elbow that makes a pungent, clear, oily toxin. It spreads the toxin on its toothcomb (a set of lower front teeth) and uses it for defence.1

它对人有多危险？

对人的危险: 很疼可能真的很疼，但几乎从不严重。

它害怕时会做什么？

一定先拨打你的急救电话（112、000、911）。这里是一般急救指导，不是医疗建议。急救基础

注意安全

永远不要摸、抓或逗弄野生动物，即使是很小的，即使它看起来在睡觉或已经死了。
给它留出空间。如果遇到它，保持冷静，慢慢后退，让它走自己的路。
如果被它咬了：保持冷静，保持不动，拨打你的急救电话（112、000、911）或尽快去医院。记住它长什么样，拍张照片会有帮助。

它不是冲着你来的。它用毒液捕猎或保护自己，而且它更愿意躲起来。更多安全知识

值得了解

事实

It is so rare and hard to find that in one 75-day field study at Sabangau National Park, researchers recorded only 12 sightings.1

It has a curved grooming claw on its second hind toe, which it uses for scratching and grooming.1

Fossils of this species have been found in the Late Pleistocene site of Niah in Sarawak.1

It is one of the smallest slow lorises, and it is the least studied of Indonesia's slow lorises.1
