Slow loris food enrichment and water presentation modification at the Burnet Zoo, Syracuse, New York (1998)

MacGregor, N.

Abstract

I build a pyramid-shaped feeder to encourage the lorises to forage for food, and an insect/food paste board to bring out a fast grabbing technique used in the wild to capture prey. ... The lorises prefer the arboreal waters source to the terrestrial water source.
