The tarsier lives in the trees of South-East Asia and is similar to lemurs, monkeys and apes.The tarsier primarily feeds on insects but tarsiers will also eat small animals such as rodents, reptiles and birds. It has the largest eyes in the mammal world. Tarsiers have even been known to catch birds that are in motion
The eyes of the western tarsier are so big they weigh more than its brain. The tarsier elongated fingers are dark brown and almost twig like in appearance.
