Orangutans devour highly poisonous mammals

Yeah, it was an image of herbivore.

Orangutans live in some forests in Malaysia and Indonesia, and are mainly fruit-colored ), It is known to eat young leaves and insects. It seems that he sometimes eats bird eggs, but he also eats animal meat .

If you don’t like a lot of orangutans, you may not be able to get it right, so Borneo’s orangutans photographed and uploaded by Madeleine E. Hardus and others are small mammals called slow lorises. Watch the video of capturing and eating.

According to the academic journal Primates, researchers will be at the Tuanan Orangutan Research Station in the Capuas region of Central Kalimantan, Borneo, from 2003 to 2017. He observed the behavior of the orangutan. As a result, it was found that 61% of fruits, 14% of young leaves, 8% of flowers, and 5% of insects eat.

This video was taken by chance, IFLS According to , the researchers were observing orangutan parents and children in the first place. However, the male “Moron” suddenly got off the tree and started chasing the slow loris, so he changed the target in a hurry. As a result, it seems that it became a video get to eat while hitting the slow loris and dropping it from the tree and handling it carefully.

Researchers who witnessed a series of actions would have been surprised. Like eating animals, slow lorises are mammals but poisonous I have.

They move slowly, but Poison from their elbows and mix with saliva ),

The sharp teeth hurt the enemy’s skin and let it soak in poison . Originally, he has a timid personality, so he doesn’t attack aggressively, but if he is attacked, he can fight back firmly. It weighs about 2 kg, but It seems to be a strong poison that causes anaphylactic shock even if a human is bitten, so orangutans should be careful when handling it. I’m convinced.

By the way, orangutans don’t eat meat all the time, and it seems that they have only been seen twice in a long survey period. One of the two was Kore, and the other was an orangutan who couldn’t stand hunger and ransacked the rat’s nest so that he could eat it as a snack.

If you increase the number of researchers and conduct a thorough investigation over a long period of time, you may be able to witness a little more. However, it is “very rare” in the current research, and it seems that this is “the first event that a wild Bornean orangutan preyed on a slow loris”.
