Tarsiers, February 2016

Photo taken on the 5th February 2016.

Very nice photo, estimado devilfish, i have enjoyed all your photos from the Japanese collections.
What was in the nocturnal exhibits ?

Muchisimas gracias, estimado Carlos.

In these nocturnal enclosures in the small mammal house, there were:

Spectral tarsier
Six-banded armadillo
Northern douroucouli
Pygmy slow loris
Woodland dormouse
Senegal galago
Japanese giant flying squirrel
Small Japanese flying squirrel
Chinchilla
Sugar glider
Short-beaked echidna
House musk shrew
Kinkajou
Brush-tailed bettong
Seba's short-tailed bat
Common (hazel) dormouse
Harvest mouse
Japanese dormouse


The nocturnal house on the other side of the zoo houses:

Chinese pangolin
Leopard cat
Bengal slow loris
Lesser mouse-deer
Leschenault's rousette

@devilfish Pretty good and varied collections!
Of the two nocturnal houses, is there one that's better than the other?

The smaller one on the other side of the zoo has enclosures which are larger, although many of the displayed animals are also larger. It's too difficult to compare the two of them but if I could only visit one on a trip to the zoo it would be the small mammal house. Not a decision I'd want to have to make though.

Very conspiratorial looking pair of tarsier.
