to deceive buyers into thinking the animal is a baby,animal dealers either pull the front teeth with pliers or wire cutters or they cut them off with nail cutters
This results in severe bleeding, which sometimes causes shock or death.
The slow lorises found in animal markets are usually underweight and malnourished, and have had their fur dyed, which complicates species identification at rescue centers. According to primatologist Anna Nekaris, these youtube videos are misunderstood by most people who watch them, since most do not realize that it is illegal in most countries to own them as pets and that the slow lorises in the videos are only docile because that is their passive defensive reaction to threatening situations. -from wikipedia

Having worked extensively with the lorises for the last couple years I am absolutely smitten with them. However, while they have the face of those cute and cuddly gremlins, they have the attitude of the evil, after-midnight flipside. With disproportionately huge and sharp canine teeth (very fang-like) and powerful jaw muscles their bites alone can be absolutely agonising. However, the pain is compounded by factors beyond the simple tissue trauma caused by the mechanical damage from the powerful jaws. The lorises are actually toxic! On the inside of their elbows, sebaceous tissue secretes a toxin (like sweat pores, which is rather fitting since the toxic mixture smells remarkably like sweaty socks). The lorises take it into their mouth and deliver it in the bite. It is not the upper and lower jaw vampire like canine teeth that deliver this toxin. It is the innocuously small teeth in the front of the lower jaw which slope forward and help conduct the saliva into the wound. http://majikthise.typepad.com/majikthise_/2005/04/poisonous_prima.html

hypothetically speaking, if one were to want a slow loris how would they get their hands on one…?

Is this somebody's pet? Is that legal?

I agree about the speedometer- except they're parked on the side of the road so… no.
