The Slow Loris Pet Trade


Slow Lorises are a species group of nocturnal primates (yes, primates, not teddy bears!), that inhabit the rainforests of South-East Asia, among which India is home to one species- the Bengal Slow Loris. All species of Slow Loris are facing the threat of extinction because of hunting, habitat loss, logging and pet trade.

The comic appears in my column with The Hindu BLink.
