UK: Is any animal cuter than the pygmy slow loris?


VideoID: 20140402-036 C/U Keeper stroking pygmy slow loris Dedicated keepers at Paignton Zoo in Devon continued caring for a rare baby Pygmy Slow Loris, Tuesday, that weighed little more than a CD at birth. The slow loris -- which weighed just 22 grams when it was born - was one of twins born to a first-time mother. One twin did not survive, and keepers stepped in to save the other when its mother abandoned it. Now, at around a month old, it has gone from 22 grams - less than a single AA battery - to over 30 grams -- the weight of a dessert spoon. The Vietnam War nearly wiped out the pygmy slow loris as forests were burned or defoliated through the use of napalm and other war agents.
