 Despite being included in CITES Appendix I protection and covered by local conservation laws , slow lorises are still threatened by both local and international trade because of problems with enforcement . The continued illegal trade in wildlife has seriously jeopardized both the success and the future of a US $ 310 million investment program by the World Bank for East and Southeast Asia biodiversity . In 2008 , training workshops for enforcement officials and rescue center personnel were held in Singapore to help teach slow loris identification , conservation status , and husbandry . Surveys prior to the training showed 87 % of the trainees could not identify slow loris species , but the one @-@ day workshops had a significant impact .
