 The drive to capture wildlife , and particularly slow lorises , is increasingly dominated by demands from wealthy urban areas , replacing the subsistence hunting traditionally performed in poor rural areas . In the case of long @-@ lived primates , such as the slow lorises , populations replenish themselves slowly . Slow lorises are particularly vulnerable because they tend to freeze when spotted . Lastly , increased access to new technologies , such as improved transport , guns , wire snares , and spotlights , have facilitated hunting and pushed extraction levels beyond the point of sustainability . These new factors threaten slow loris survival .
