Creepy Creature Facts

So it turns out the slow loris makes a secretion from its elbows that when mixed with its saliva is a deterrent for predators such as the sun bear. This combination is similar to the stuff in cat dander that causes allergic reactions. Although its a common myth that the slow loris is poisonous to people, the bite actually only causes swelling, but could cause anaphylactic shock in those that have the allergy... Cause they weren't creepy enough already with their weird body proportions!
