Evening ladies and gents. Just a quick one. I’ve come across a picture and curiosity has gotten the better of me and I would like to know what the animal in question is. Cheers for your help 🙂

A lesser red-crossed square it would appear…

EDIT: some sort of lemur?

slow loris?

Is it a bushbaby?

Mr. Tarsier, the ninja of the animal world.

I want an army of them, trained to ride ring tailed lemurs into battle

Marmosette?

Cheers for such speedy replies. Rest assured, I shall sacrifice a thousand hamsters in your honour!

LIccous Stickfancious good pic!

Looks very like a young lemur. Not the famous running sideways one. Maybe a juvenile indri. Or one of his cousins.

#Edit – the pad like fingers are common in indris but the OP photo’s may be too pronounced for an indri – I never got to see the toddlers.

It’s as sobriety says, a Tarsier. IIRC, it is thought by many that all primates are descended/have evolved from Tarsiers, or very “Tarsier-like” primitive primates.

Hairy ET?

Monkey with a woodie ya donut!

Giant Stick Insect?

It’s defo a tarsier. Seen the freaky little fellas in the wild in Bohol in the Phillipines.
