    The dissenter is every human being at those moments of his life when he resigns
    momentarily from the herd and thinks for himself.

    Have you read the last bit under Lethal Loris?:

    "Although stealth is their main defence, slow lorises have developed an even more elaborate defence mechanism – they are venomous. It is still unknown if loris venom is used to target predators, but we do know that it can kill a human being. Before biting prey items or predators, slow lorises combine a secretion from brachial glands with their saliva in order to produce a numbing venom that can send humans into anaphylactic shock. They then keep their arms tightly coiled above their head, protecting this vulnerable part of their body, in a manner that has been described as imitating a cobra."

    Stick to the Zoo like the rest of us with these little ones.

    That's why you snap their front teeth off with a pair of nail-cutters or pliers. Then you can tickle their cute
    little tummies all day long without fear.
