It is illegal and unethical to buy a slow loris as a pet. Slow lorises are wild animals that should be in their natural habitat, not as pets in captivity. Furthermore, slow lorises have specialized care requirements that are difficult to meet in a home setting.
Slow lorises raise their arms up as a defensive posture to warn predators or other threats to stay away. This behavior is a way for them to protect themselves and show that they are ready to defend themselves if necessary.
Main Predators Are Clouded Leopards, Sun Bears, Civets And Pythons. They Will Also Get Eaten By Large Fish, Crocodiles, Asiatic Black Bears, Tigers And Komodo Dragons. P.S. Crocodiles And Large Fish Eat Slow Lorises When In Water And Slow Lorises Are Poisonous, So That Is A Good Defence.

The slow lorises live throughout tropical rainforests in Southeast Asia. The slender lorises are found in the tropical forests of India and Sri Lanka. Pottos occur only in the tropical and subtropical forests of West and Central Africa.
