    The Tarsier is a small, highly sensitive, nocturnal primate found in the Philippines, they are threatened by habitat loss due to deforestation. Tarsiers suffer greatly from illegal pet trade; hunters and trappers shake the animals out of their trees or chop down the branches of the trees in which they live to be captured and sold als a pet for which they are completely unsuitable, partly due to their sensitivity to light and touch.

    Fur farming is a form of intensive livestock farming in which the animals are kept for their skin. Ultimately, the skin of the animals is processed into fur. The bodies of the animals are burned or processed into animal feed. Mink, more so than any other farmed species, pose a risk for the emergence of future disease outbreaks and the evolution of future pandemics.
