quote: Even the best-breeding facilities have great difficulty breeding lorises, and those that do often have difficulty keeping them alive. It is so easy to get access to wild-caught lorises, it is highly doubtful that a seller who claims to have captive-bred ones is telling the truth.
quote: ... it had the face of a bear, the hands of a monkey and moved like a sloth ...
