Following treatment, the animal will be released to the Lawachhara forest in Moulvibazar, said Swapan.
Jabed Bhuiyan, joint-convener of animal rights organisation Lawachhara Bon O Jibo Boichitro Rokkha Andolon , said the Slow Loris eats fruits and tree resin. He identified tree-logging as the reason why the animal might have run into danger.
A group of local influentials in the area have been involved in logging various 100-year-old trees of different species, including teak, he said. With its habitat and food source depleting, the Loris may have had to venture into human villages in search of resources.
The Slow Loris scientific name is Nycticebus. It eats insects, arthropods, small birds and reptiles, eggs, fruits, gums, nectar, and miscellaneous vegetation. But as its food and habitats are under threat, the species is slowly inching towards extinction, Forest Office sources said.
