Abstract
Lorises are protected and endangered animals, according to the IUCN, because of poaching, habitat fragmentation, and illegal sales that occur. This study aims to determine the suitability of the cages by observing the behavior and use of the cages space by the sumatera lorises in Primate Animal Study Center. The method used is instantaneous vocal animal sampling with 10-minute intervals. The study results showed locomotion behavior at 46.69%, social behavior at 2.63%, elimination at 1.6%, rest at 25.11%, grooming at 6.16%, foraging at 2.4%, eating at 3.88%, and being alert at 11.53%. Lorises in Primate Animal Study Center use the entire cages space provided to carry out active and inactive activities. The conservation aspect is sufficiently supportive of the housing and feed aspects provided. Even though the feed given is not in accordance with its original habitat, therefore a change in the feed menu is necessary.
