Home range and ranging pattern in the slender loris(Loris tardigradus lydekkerianus)
Primates.

Abstract
The home range and ranging pattern of the slender loris (Loris tardigradus lydekkerianus) was studied for 21 months in a scrub jungle in Dindigul, Tamil Nadu, south India. Sixteen individuals were observed for a total of 2261 hours. Home ranges were measured for eight adult individuals and eight juvenile and subadult individuals. Males had significantly larger home ranges than the females, and home range size increased post-weaning. The ranging patterns involved minimal female intrasexual overlap, large male intrasexual overlap and large intersexual range overlap.
