Video by @Joel Sartore | It’s clear that the eyes of a spectral tarsier are exceptionally large. In fact, they’re the largest, relative to body weight, of any mammal on Earth. Though their huge eyes help spectral tarsiers see at night, they are set in their skulls and immobile, much like an owl’s. Tarsiers compensate for their lack of eye mobility by being able to rotate their heads a full 180 degrees to check out their surroundings. This tiny primate weighs only as much as 20 pennies and can easily fit into the palm of a human hand.
Spectral tarsier populations are in decline and the species is currently listed as Vulnerable on the #IUCN Red List. Their most significant threat by far is the degradation of their rainforest homes in Indonesia due to agriculture, illegal logging, and mining of limestone for cement manufacturing. To help save the tarsiers it is important to make sustainable purchasing choices and to continue supporting the conservation of rainforests.
This spectral tarsier was photographed at Night Safari, part of Wildlife Reserves Singapore (@WRS.ig).
