This curious little guy or girl is the Ultimate (Cute Animal) Argument Settler: the Pygmy Slow Loris, via Neatorama. Just when it can’t get any cuter, it gets cuter:
But uh-oh, from wikipedia:
Slow lorises can produce a toxin which they mix with their saliva and use as protection against enemies. The toxin is produced by glands on the insides of their elbows. The lorises lick or suck it into their mouths and deliver it when they bite. The toxin is not known to be fatal to humans, but causes a painful swelling.
Damn, I thought I’d finally found my perfect pet. (They’re also, you know, endangered.)

He’s a cute little spooky creep.
elbow poison is super adorable!
if its endangered, why is it in some sorostitute’s dorm room?
Eh, I’ve seen slower.
Yay! Know I can think of this instead of the Mantauk Monster. That makes me feel much better.
Wow. I just spelled now with a K. I’m way smart.
that fucking thing is creepy as hell.
Did Mr. Slow Loris write that awesome song?
I had to watch it twice because the first time around I was completely distracted by the weird foot in the background. Am I seeing things wrong?
