And now... at last - Sonya!!!! (slow loris)

I have shot this video on 02 February 2009. I have also posted it on vimeo.com and it became very popular!

You can find the original 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 bought her in a local pet-shop. Thats why she is so tame and friendly!

Feel free to ask us a question!

LOL this is the cutest thing i've seen, ever.

It pisses me off hwne people post comments like "They belong in the wild! It longs for swinging in the trees!" yeah well I've got something to say to you hippies. In the wild they are at the bottom of the food chain and are always being hunted.

Just look at this thing. Its obviously spoiled beyond belief and has the best life a slow loris could have. I highly doubt it wants to live with hungry predators.

Also, never touch a low lorises elbows.

Honda Sent Me Here, I Thought It Was Fake :-P

@bluegama500 actually they are only hunted by one thing in the wild: MAN! The venom gives off a smell that puts off any other natural predator that would eat them and also helps to keep parasites off them. But of course, you researched that didn't you. It may be spoilt now but it will have been captured in the wild (they do not breed in captivity) and had its teeth torn out or clipped to stop it biting. The sick f*ck who owns it ought to be ashamed of himself and so should you

To quote Dr Anna Nekaris a scientist who has been studying slow lorises for years, "Even the best breeding facilities have great difficulty breeding lorises, and those that do often have difficulty keeping them alive. It is so easy to get access to wild-caught lorises, it is highly doubtful that a seller who claims to have captive-bred ones is telling the truth." So even if this loris was bred in captivity you can garantee that it's parents were not

@arealbladeofgrass "so called artist" are you a fucking spastic?, fuck off you hippy. 

[arealbladeofgrass]

@Gritzaable Did you see the BBC docu about this animal called Loris? It was on the telly last night. If you didn't , well, then I can understand you being an ignorant, conceited, smug, shallow plonker. If however you did see it, well then Fuck you  dickhead, wannabe so-called artist fail !! ): (

@sweetypie000 no shit but it seems like you're missing one, now please grow up as it seems like you're a complete hippy, i'm not ignorant i just take different perspective on things.

[sweetypie000]

@Gritzaable We all have chromosomes, they are the basic building blocks. If you'd read school books you'd know that :)

Moraly I am right on most things because I am not selfish and ignorant. Shame you are immoral.

take care now

XxX

@sweetypie000 Nice one shame you're completely wrong with everything... I dont have any pets to be honest with yo so yeah your point is now invalid. As for my point its still a valid fact and before the "millennia" dogs were once wild but have been crossed bred for many years and are now domesticated if you've read my status and had the chromosomes you would have fucking known.

The owner of this video clearly dosen't log on deliberatly so they pretend not to see the calls to bring this video down whilst collecting his blood money for this video.

We are onto you, Sergeyev

@Okami266 only thing that is being helped is the continued illegal trade in these animals. You buy one, you are supporting the cruelty and exploitation and that is the fact
