The African loris is a small, nocturnal primate found in the tropical forests of Africa. It is also known as the potto, which is a five-letter word that is often used to describe this species. The African loris is a slow-moving creature that spends most of its time in trees, and it has a thick coat of fur to protect it from the elements. It is an omnivore, meaning it eats both plants and animals, and it is known for its large eyes and long, slender fingers.
