Too much coffee?

Officials say the tiny tree-dwelling mammals, sometimes called the world's smallest monkeys, are in danger of extinction due to the disappearance of the country's forests.(AFP/Jay Directo)

1. Holy cow it looks like an alien. Er, on too much coffee.

2. Thank you

That's too cute.

Many of our closest relatives, the primates, live in habitats that are severely threatened. Orangutangs live in Sumatra (yeah, *that* Sumatra) and Borneo, gorillas in Rwanda, lemurs in Madacascar-- all places where desperate human populations are chopping down trees (if not each other) to try and eke out a homestead.

My cynical doppelganger would like to remind you that the wingers would be delighted if they all went extinct, so nobody ever again saw anything that might look like evidence for evolution.

3. Neat!

Not about the extinction, of course. I'm gonna have to do a little digging on these guys, they're pretty cool!
