Tarsier

[memito1689]

the tarsier looks stressed out, i pity this little creature... not all tourists are aware that tarsiers should have been resting or sleeping at daytime

[SkidVixen]

Although this is like the cutest animal ever and I wanna cuddle it, I'm pretty sure it's not very happy to be displayed like this.

God I love these little things <3

[leebrazel]

I was there in Bohol 2 months ago and I visited the Tarsiers in the Sanctuary/ Reserve Research center. you can see them in the wild there if you are lucky. There are also Unofficial places to see them and even hold them, it is very cruel, please only visit the sanctuary near Tagbilaran city..

[behevolent45]

actually, a tarsier is not a monkey nor a primate, it's in between.

and i agree with POLDUMDUMAYA, tarsiers should not be taken out of their natural habitats. these little guys are nocturnal which mean they must sleep during the day and that can be hard sometimes when the tourists' come to make noises and awaken the little creatures up.

these are my favorite animals in the world and i hope they can stay around for a long time to come.

[PirateJessicaandcats]

@behevolent45 They are primates :) They're a haplorine, but also a prosimian

[POLDUMDUMAYA]

sorry guys but the tarsiers in bohol are not allowed to be stressed anymore meaning no more close encounter, only picture from afar....bad for tourists, good for the tarsier

[0xMaAgx0]

i miss dem!!! dey're so cute!!! i wanna go bck to philippines & see dem....

[elliexcomedian]

Yes, they are cute, but please, they do not want to be taken out of their natural places.

Please do not buy these little guys.

They look adorable, I know...

How come they are so calm around people... ?

[christme85]

good news for tarsier fans scientist have discovered a pygmy tarsier in the forests of indonesia that specie was believed instinct the last one seen alive was 81 years ago..look out for his picture on the net really tiny gizmo so sweet..

[TheMorbidAtheist]

fucking lolz

[ayame08]

pls dont plan to buy this animals they are very shy and if they are taken to their homeland they commit suicide. its not good as u think.

[brooklynsphinx]

cute animals. i feel bad for them though they can get stressed out and then they commit suicide. theyre used in the mars volta music video for televators

[SillySmithy101]

cooooooooooooooooool

[thetshirtblog]

i'd never want to know what cricket breath smells like...

[nicolatwo]

Too much noise for these sensitive ears.

[ChaChinnngK]

That's what I was thinking

[xxmellyxx22]

I want one soooo cute!

[MightyTiny]

While Tarsiers are incredibly cute in a creepy sort of way, I do have to say that I find it very distasteful that they be displayed like this, during the daytime, in the noisy clamor of tourists. They are nocturnal animals, and should not be kept awake this way during daytime, just for the convenience of tourists.

[FULLOOKKK]

I totally agree but look at the country we are dealing with!

[oxmor]

@MightyTiny Actually, i do believe its not uncommon to see these creatures out during day time in the Philippines, although they are obviously nocturnal creatures.

[JaneTennison]

From what country is this/ So cute and scary at the same time!!

[AnotherRandomLozer]

it's so adorably creepy!!! tarsiers are so freakin awesome.

[000snow000]

odd mix of creepy and adorable

[heat45jc]

what's the smallest monkey that's okay for a pet. give that one has sufficiant space and money to burn on an exotic pet.

[Suuske747]

Those are nocturnal animals being abused to make money from tourists like the poster of this video. How unresponable and abusive.....look at the size of the Tarsier's pupils completely shrunk down because of the bright light....poor animal.

[boomslang5]

I was wondering why they were up in the daytime...this is abuse. They should be asleep.

[kilop03]

Cool! this freaking animal cant see a thing!!!!!!!!!

[hightek669]

It looks like a little gremlin, lol.

[kipzaren]

my goodness! what will you do if u happens to encounter someone like that in the middle of the night in ur room? anu n lng kaya magiging reaction ko kung makasalubong ko yan sa daan pag gabi? waaaaaaaaah... tiyanak! lol

[dinkske]

OMG i want that anymal!

[alienlabs]

Douglas Adams said about it:

It has the look of someone who's looking at a wonderfull place full of fantastic architectures that is located exactly behind your left shoulder.

[goawayfreak]

Lol,I 've seen a tarsier.and it scared the shit outa me.

it jumped. JUMPED. HOLY CRAP :((

then there was a actual monkey on the otherside. and it bit me. damn it.

[MariaGarcia281]

Great clip

[kurtkords]

How cute that is!!!!Looks like a Monkey crossed with a Mogwai lol!minus the long ears.

[AshiDxB]

so scary

[MukeshInOz]

it looks very cute..

i will call him tree-dog ;)

[utubefan25]

Wish visitors didn't prod them so much when tourists come in :T

[LetsGetLostTogether]

yes. athame. no oil.

and its way too cute

[Hawaiiewl]

Would u skin and boil these things alive for $50 off best buy? If so, what kind of knife would u use, and would u use oil?

[DrewGuy88]

"How can they classify that as a monkey..I wonder how they classified that as a monkey...How...Monkey"

OMG SHUTUP.

[rae629]

they look freakily cute

[gianboy2001]

i think they should be called EMOSIER!

[Patriaga]

one day i'll help save these aliens . . and dominate the human race . . mwahaha naw but really i'd love to help conserve these creatures, as a filipino i think it's an obligation . . O_o

[frobayre]

www_tarsier_ws

[frobayre]

Hope to save this littliest allien

[frobayre]

Very Adorable

[derfman]

wtf!! kill them before it speads

[snoopy1215]

its so ugly its cute. i love those things! they have to be kept in pairs too cuz if they're alone they'll commit suicide from loneliness

[ikanaide]

These creature are solitaire, they do rarely "hang" out with other tarsiers u dummy..

though they do become suicidal if they a captivated for a long period of time in a little cage, its actually pretty normal..

[MrSweetNLow]

Shit nigga, did you see that? Lol, it's like a little ompa-lumpa; I want one.

[kolea13]

awwwwwwwwww this is soooooooo cute I love u little guy awww

[halimaw12]

when you see one, be sure not to scare it, bcoz if threatened, it commits suicide.. poor thing that's why they're endangered

[XDEUCE16X]

how does it commit suicide does it jump out of its tree?

[halimaw12]

it bangs it head until it dies. these things are just suicidal.

[ikanaide]

oh yea i read that somewhere to, its somewhat fascinationg

[halimaw12]

it is actually like a rat, when u see one i mean the tail, its tail looks like from a rat

[cheucklate]

before it reaches the children!

[cheucklate]

i'll slap anyone that considers this cute.. STEP ON THE BIG BUG! STEP ON THE BIG BUG!

[Kikyo1992]

It's so CUTE!!!!! I wish I had one that I could take home.

[zfmduel]

that will scare the shyt outta me when I see one after dark

[dilmo22]

isnt that Brain form "Pinky and the Brain"?

[pikoi06]

now thats we called,.. a living pokemon,. cause you can even put that monster in your pocket!! lol gotta catch em all!

[LaserLink]

nice cute lil fella! its endangered, you cant make them as pets,. that poor thing should be in their natural habitat,. thats why they put some of them in that center , so that people will appreciate them and learn to take care of their environment,. ^_^ kudos for this vid!!!

[madryan]

Firstly i've been there and seen the tarsier for myself and that place is a shithole. They deserve better and an actual real zoo.

[e53e54]

It looks like alien.

[Rabswood]

Poor little thing in the middle of all that noise and chaos. It sould be in it's natural environment in the wild. People should not pay to see/visit animals being exploited in this way.

[museiain]

Great little feller. Amazing, I don't think I could remain so relaxed with so many people talking, taking pictures. Just goes to show, someone or something teaches you fear and trust. It can go either way.

[JD]

Though they may look cute, I don't think it would be a good idea to keep them as pets. Aside from being illegal to keep as pets, I heard the can spread worms and other parasites to humans.

Hopefully when I visit the Philippines again I'll make a stop at Bohol to see these things...

[azialuvr]

I know that "zoo", it's on the main road near Loboc. The T-shirt and gift shop is larger than the space for the animals. I'ts a shame how those animals are treated there, they must get neurotic from the crowd around them. They also don't look good, they have signs of stress.

The real healthy looking tarsiers are in the Tarsier Breeding and Conservation Center, about 30km from Loboc.

[kunol08]

those eyes can see the smallest bug... cute... harmless... but it'll scratch you if you scare it... hehe...

[jimshady08]

i live in the philippines, yet i have never seen one with my own two eyes. that is so sad.

it's harmless, guys, unless you're a bug, that is.

[latinmonkey]

cool little dude.

[ubersp00k]

Man... I was really hoping it would attack someone

[dreamer04]

it looks like a rat sorta

[qoo05]

cute little fellow

[adventurouskate]

I had the feeling that it was going to attack or something. Eh.

[CorpseBride777]

I can't stop staring at it's big ass eyes!! O___o

[Sophistaphunk]

Those things are so scary, those and opossoms... if I saw one of those run past me, I'd literally drop dead from fear....

[hermania]

oh I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[lunagata]

BIG EYES!!

O-O 0-0 0_0 o_o

[KeDaO]

Its great! i want one of them! :P

[hahaipwnyou]

If you cross a furby with a gerbil, you'll get a Tarsier. Being filipino, this is an awesome video. You guys gotta realize that the leaves are a little less than 6 inches in length.

[khjun]

what a nice animal.

lol...someone thinks it's fake..

[jarriel96]

[hightek669]

What is that?! It looks like a baby koala bear! I want one! My friend told me, "No, you don't want one of those as a pet! They bite!"

[rbishop]

The poor things are very timid and like to not be seen. It's probably  freaking out and in shock. What is this, a zoo? Rehabilitation cntr? They are very special animals. There isn't much known about their habits.

[ryancordell]

This was actually in a center for the tarsier, where they had a few on display in the open.

[mdude911]

[strange08]

[heavensent0607]

Aww he's not too ugly. I think it becomes cuter once you get used to it. Aww *hugs* It's like that little baby thing from the movie Madagascar. ^_^

[rf500056]

Truejardeylink.....learn to read before you call someone out....the poster clearly states "one of the smallest", not THE smallest. Jacka$$.

Damn that think is ugly though...

[ralfGerards]

Look at this one

[Rubert2005]

[scleeme]

tarsiers help the economy of bohol by becoming insomniacs!!! they're nocturnal creatures and they are up every morning because of tourists who take pictures of them with flashing cameras hurting their eyes!!!!!

[cky283]

THATS A FUCKING EWOK

[jackiedaniels]
