not very popular primates

the galago also known as bushbaby or nagapie  make urine paths and by followings the urine,s smell nagapies can be right next to eachother. galagos can jump 2.25 meters. pottos have few predators but one group of chimps ate some but no other chimps do there real predator is humans if they are near villages. african palm civets eat them sometimes even though they are fruitivores.  pottos grow from 30-39 centimeters. lorises have poisoun in their elbows and lick it for a poisinous bite.  their are two genuses of loris their is loris and nycticebus loris contains slender lorises and nycticebus with slow lorises. tarsiers have large eyes for seeing in the night because they are nocturnal. tarsiers are the one type of primate that is entirely carnivorous. they are insectivores.
