Tarsier or loris ?

[Onychorhynchus coronatus]

Indeed I do remember when the Clore Pavilion housed angwantibo, potto, slender loris and slow loris. And I believe London Zoo holds the longevity record of thirteen years for a captive angwantibo.

However, despite making my first visit to Rotterdam in 1984, I have no recollection of seeing angwantibo there that year. (Incidentally my main memory of that particular visit was seeing my first takin.)

Sounds like ZSL once had a superb collection of the Lorisidae.

Yeah. I am super jealous of the people who saw them, but hopefully when I'm a zoologist I'll be able to see some Lorisaiade. Especially Calabar angwantibos.

You plan to be a zoologist ?

Yes I do! I have always wanted to be a zoologist since I learned about one. That's why I enjoy zoochat, where I can chat with my "own kind" and talk with other people who are interested in animals.

Brilliant, that is a great ambition to have and of course this site is a superb place to begin learning about animals and their behaviour and ecology.

I mean, for an animal nerd is there really any other choice! I have always loved animals and I really enjoy the natural world.
