If you think you want one of these, note that slow lorises are an endangered species (in part because of the pet trade), they have a toxic bite, a rare trait among mammals. The toxin is produced by licking a gland on their arm, and the secretion mixes with its saliva to activate it. They smell, they are nocturnal, and generally have their teeth ripped out (without anesthetic) for the purposes of the pet trade.
