I am happy to present you our new video with Sonya!!!
You can find the original "Tickle" video (together with other videos of Sonya) at http://www.vimeo.com/3057473
I am very glad that you like it! Stay tuned and i'll post more videos soon!
P.S. I must answer several questions was asked:
1. First of all, we are located in St.Petersburg, RUSSIA.
2. It is NOT ILLEGAL in Russia to own this animals.
3. Our Sonya was born in a loris nursery and we have legally bought her in a local pet-shop. Thats why she is so tame and friendly!
Feel free to ask us a question!

@DmitrySergeyev I am urging you to post a link in your description to the YouTube documentary BBC Natural world 2012 Jungle Gremlins of Java. If you love this animal, help save it!
-
What kind of animal is it? :)
-
@DmitrySergeyev The trouble is that these videos are misunderstood by most who watch them. It's illegal in most countries to own them as pets and slow lorises in videos are docile as it's their passive defensive reaction to threatening situations. Please read the page on slow lorises on Wikipedia. If you love these animals post a note on all your videos telling people to educate themselves before thinking of having one as a pet & link to the YouTube BBC documentary, Jungle Gremlins of Java.

@DansarJensen It's inevitable and sad that humans are destroying our planet like this...
-
@DRDFOX I agree, he is (naively) participating in a trade that threatens these animals. I mention as much a few comments back, but agreed with another poster that the hysterical comments calling for him to have his throat ripped out, etc aren't helping either. Anyway, I hope he removes these videos, and that the debate here educates people thinking about trying to acquire one for a pet.

@Fallenskate069 Actually they're protected internationally by the CITES appendix, it's illegal EVERYWHERE to have these as pets. They're just in Russia so they get away with more fucked up stuff like owning an illegal exotic pet.

Anyone concerned with the plight of the slow loris, please google 'Dr Anna Nekaris' little fire face project'. Anyone wanting one of these for a pet should know the suffering the pet trade causes, not to mention helping to bring about their extinction.

I hope the poachers that caught this beautiful animal rot in hell but the people who illegally buy the slow loris are just as bad and techniacally are breaking the law.
