The Slow Loris: The Only Venomous Primate Confuses Evolutionists
The slow loris is a venomous primate, the only poisonous primate on Earth and one of only a few venomous mammals. Slow lorises have a toxic bite, which is rare among mammals and unique among the primates. Found in the forests of Southeast Asia, the slow loris has a round head, a narrow snout, and large eyes, while their bodies are flexible, allowing for good mobility in the trees. They can also hang from branches for long periods of time.
The toxin is obtained by licking a sexual gland on their arm, and the secretion is activated by mixing with saliva. Their toxic bite is a deterrent to predators, and the toxin is also applied to the fur during grooming as a form of protection for their infants. Their toxic bite can kill a human, but despite this, these "cute" primates are sold as pets despite experts not recommending them as pets.
Because of their sharp teeth and venomous bite, the slow loris is difficult for evolutionists to classify. Slow lorises are nocturnal and known for moving slowly with little noise. Slow lorises are omnivores, and eat both plants and small animals.
Slow loris movement has been described a snake-like and this twisting movement is caused by having several more vertebra in their spine than other primates. The slow loris also has one of the longest tongues of all primates.
Evolutionists even claim that the slow loris evolved its venomous bite to fight the cobra. Creationists explain that the slow loris is a unique animal designed by God to survive in its environment. How could the slow loris learn to use its venom glands? Where did the venomous capability come from in the first place? Evolutionist explanations are difficult and the slow loris fits in with the creation model, a creature specifically designed by a powerful Creator.
