First radio-collaring of Bornean slow loris in wildlife sanctuary

Appeared July 18, 2011
Published in The Borneo Post

From Stephanie Stowell, Earth Expeditions Borneo II course instructor:
“Check it out! Borneo II EEers on the front page of the Borneo Post. The DGFC is getting a ton of press out of this first-ever collaring of a slow loris. Pretty cool to have been there when it all went down. Half of our group was out on a night hike with DGFC staff when the slow loris was spotted. One of the DGFC guys ripped off his shoes and scrambled up the tree to get him and brought him back to the lab. Everyone got a chance to see “Krik” in the lab and then they closed the door while they did all the measurements and fitted him with his new necklace. Pretty amazing experience….wanted to share!”
