BOHOL TARSIER

This is a continuation from the Bohol travel diaries. I mentioned on my other posts about touring around Bohol island, visiting chocolate hills, Panglao island, etc. We had so much fun touring around the island for one day. Our lunch on the boat while cruising the Loboc river was wonderful. The food was great and the view was amazing. Bohol is such a lovely place. I know, I keep saying this all the time. I really like Bohol. I have a great childhood memories there.

Bohol Tarsier in the Philippines:

The tarsier in Bohol is the smallest monkey in the world, although it is really not a monkey. We called it “Tarsier” and can only be found in Bohol province, Samar, Leyte, and in mindanao, Philippines. Bohol tarsier is a very tiny animal and very sensitive to lights.  Make sure you don’t use camera flash when taking photos because it can scare them a lot. They normally just stay on a tree and are very quiet. They are most active at nights. When inside the area it is recommended to stay quiet so these little creature won’t be scared.

Here’s our little pictorial with the little and cute bohol tarsier. Make sure to see them if you’re visiting the island. We all looked funny in these photos, so sorry for that!
