Tarsier Facts

From the inestimable Ze Frank, via Miss Cellania


As to the tarsier's innocent wide-eyed appearance, well you might watch this short clip (from the BBC's Life and narrated by the wonderful and ubiquitous and also inestimable David Attenborough). To quote, in part: "Tarsiers are the only totally carnivorous primates on Earth." (Okay, Ze Frank says this, too, and sounds like Morgan Freeman, but he probably got it from Attenborough, who sounds like Attenborough.)
