Tarsiers babies aren’t all that much smaller than their parents when they are born. The mother will often carry the baby in her mouth, or tucked under her arm — as is the case in this photo. The mom will find a safe place, leave her baby there, and then go hunting for grasshoppers and other insects.
I love the meerkats, but I think the tarsiers are my favorite of the exotic animals you have introduced me to. Their faces are so sweet. Look at how much she loves her baby. The maternal instinct runs very strong…perfect for the week before Mothers Day!

OMG OMG OMG OMG. TUCK THAT BABY IN!!!!!! I can’t take how cute this is. Tarsier…still my fave!
Omg – that mama has a football grip on her babe! It
Totally agree with mom! Though perhaps her eyes are that big because she birthed something almost as big as herself? Gulp!
Such an awesome shot, Sean!
