I heard tarsiers show self-harming behavior when they get extremely stressed. I hope more people are made aware that tarsiers live nearby, and that noise gets kept away from them.

We had them here too, but we couldn't protect them. Another Philippine tarsier was found dead on the road connecting Bgy. Cacaransan and Bgy. Saputan in Calbayog City, Samar. |ABS-CBN News

Habitat destruction

This is what happens when they lose their homes. It was reportedly found on a concrete floor, not in a forest or on soil. On a stone floor. Poor things.

Criticism of the government

The DENR (Department of Environment and Natural Resources) has no intention of protecting them. They even allowed China to strip the Sierra Madre mountains bare.
