They range from Bangladesh and Northeast India in the west to the Philippines in the east, and from the Yunnan province in China in the north to the island of Java in the south.

Niche: Slow lorises are nocturnal and arboreal, foraging and hunting in the trees at night. these primates are omnivore. They catch live food by remaining motionless until surprising their prey with a quick strike with their hands.

Adaptation:
- Stay in trees which helps keep away from pretators.
- Sleep during the day which also helps with staying away from pretators
- They have opposable thumbs. These thumbs (on all four legs) help them grip branches.
- Specialized blood vessels that give extra oxygen to their muscles allowing them to hold onto trees for hours on end without getting tired.
- Flexible back also allows them to hang on at odd angles including upside down.
- Unhurried movement could actually be a way that slow lorises avoid predators. They are very silent when they locomote.
- Thick skin, so if they are attacked, the teeth of the predator doesn’t sink in as much giving the slow loris more of a chance to survive.
- Large, dark markings that make their huge eyes appear even bigger, so nocturnal predators could get a glimpse of their eyes while hunting and mistake it for a bigger animal.

Diet :  Large mollusks, insects, lizards, birds, small mammals, eggs, gum and fruits.

Conservation status:
All five species of slow loris are listed as either vulnerable or endangered by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN). They conservation status was originally listed as Least Concern in 2000, because of the rapidly decrease of their population from the selling of animal market, in 2007 the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITESS) elevated them to Appendix I, which prohibits international commercial trade.
