Gremlin or Yoda?
Being the inspiration for the Gremlin's Gizmo (and Yoda from Star Wars) is the Tarsier's contribution to Pop Culture.
Of course, we wouldn't want it to stay that way right? If you want this tarsier to have a chance at survival, leave your mark in here and let "your voice be heard."

Did you know that the Philippine Tarsier (Tarsius syrichta) commits suicide during captivity due to trauma from touching and loud noise
YOU CAN HELP PRESERVE THE TARSIERS BY:
Not keeping tarsiers as pets.
Not buying captured tarsiers in the pet market.
Reporting cases of hunting, killing or smuggling of tarsiers; as a specially protected faunal species (Proclamation 1030, such acts prohibited).
Not patronizing outlets displaying illegally-acquired tarsiers.
Sending donations to duly recognized bodies promoting tarsier research and conservation.
