Slow loris




















Inspired by this classic Youtube vid , I created this little amigurumi loris for my boss as a secret santa present.

Slow loris are threatened because poachers kill them for their eyes, which they use as a traditional medicine. But the cute loris isn't without defence...

They have a poisonous bite and if that fails they can cunningly drop from their branch and roll away in a tight little ball. Too cute.
