It’s so cool that there are still animals that we’ve never seen before. I guarantee most ppl didn’t even know this cute guy exists.

I sincerely admire the photographers who filmed this. What incredible shots of this little critter that I had never heard of.

[AndreiKouznetsov]

This is our closest ancestor. Smartest too.

I like this video to understand this lovely animal. I wish the music wasn't scary though. This animal is sweet and only eats leaves and flowers. I think it deserves some sweet and uplifting if mysterious music, to help people love it and care about it.

I just found out colugos exist. I'm 48. How tf is that possible? They are kind of cute.

I really don't know what is the reason of deforestation. Why should humans overpopulate the earth and drive such magnificent creature like this one to extinction just for their own good. We need to learn every being has its place in nature, us humans too. Just because we have the most intelligent brain does not mean we can destroy the earth and drive such magnificent beings like Kolugo into extinction just like we did with dodo and other animals. We need to learn our place in this ecosystem.

Imagine a giant colugo, but it eats meat and one night it swoops down and lands on your back! Scary.
