This looks like a Sloth to me. Not sure though.

Specialspesh:
There's nothing so strange/weird about it. That's a Potto, eye turns white when dead.

correct...naija with that bush baby mentality and lady koi koi mentality

That is a frog

Eww too scary i don't even want to see it in my dreams.

VickyRotex:
This same animal that caused confusion on NL about 2 months ago. (Potto)

Where people were saying it's Koala, Panda, bush baby


I know this will get to 20 pages too.

This Facebook user said this weird looking animal was found in front of his sister's room in her school situated in Ekpoma, Edo State. This looks very much weird.


Is it really a bush baby?

Anyways this is an Angwantibo.

Piercy:
Hey guys I am really interested in this and I will get to the root as to this was found in my school in as much.. It's typically a very odd animal

Now let me clear the air

First of all its

It's not a koala.. They don't live in Africa.. Secondly the features are in arguably different nothing similar about both animals


Secondly it's not a potto

The potto is quite close to this creature but seeing what I have researched so far about potto I can say it's definitely not a potto


Thirdly it's not a bear...the last specie of Africa bear known as the Atlas bear is extinct plus it was only found in North Africa precisely around Morocco

And no again it's not a bush dog or some wild cat

Now we have understood that...

I would have loved a real detailed picture of the animal one where the feet and hands are shown that's a simple way to identify it but nor the less I will provide a viable name today...

Please I disqualified the above assumptions after serious researchs made... Before you claim to be Noah let me see your proof with possible sources

Thanks

If any one could help me with its actual skin color, it's feet, possession of claws or not... Any details at all or a good link to a very good pic of it.. It will be helpful

Nice write up, but I disagree with you, this looks like a Potto, observe the fingerless digits and read up on wiki the anatomy of the potto..This very animal matches that description.. It may well be a Calabar Agwantibo, they kind of look similar from my little research.. We have a lot to learn in Naija men..

k

It's not a sloth. There is evidentiary 6 species and nor of it matches it.. If it's some sub specie core features should be intact most notably the claw hands something I don't see.. And you are right though about same thing : both animals are the same


Concerning the glowing eyes.. I believe this is a refraction of flash led light on camera when it was taken...

A bush baby

looking for its bush mother

in female hostel......

Maybe a student mother aborted it
& threw it into the bush..

hahahaha, forget that thing jor, u never marry, u no dey straff

Slow Loris is not as big as a potto. Though they look alike to an extent

Atmmachine:

I know the name of that animal

That animal is definitely not a baby bush

The name of that animal is Slow Loris

Here's the picture of how a Slow Loris looks like

ikiri

Pottos have different species. This particular one is a Bosman's potto

After the second picture from the same animal from the uniben post and wiki details on potto this definitely is a potto.... Plus the potto is the only animal who falls between the Nigeria region for possible habitation especially the southern side...

Nice If you don't mind do check out the uniben post it confirmed your suspicious and provided a plausible answer to the animal



THIS is a confirmed potto... It was why I needed a detailed look at the nails it's easy to get a read on animal taxonomy through the finger digits

loobby:
THAT ANIMAL IS CALLED BUHARI

What a scary creature. Seeing it the time

For people who have lived in deep rural areas and are familiar with forest, there's nothing spiritual about this animal. It's one of the family of Bush baby.
It has a very tough skin and live in deep forest on the trees. If the house is close to bushes with big trees it can come out to food in the open.
It's a night animal. Hence it's not easily seen.
Enough of the spiritualization of ignorance.

Confirmed thanks to quick observation by baroda and a much detailed pic of same animal from an earlier thread by a uniben stud who killed same animal... It's confirmed as the periodictus potto ( THE BOSSMAN POTTO)

IT IS NO SPIRITUAL ANIMAL ITS CALLED BUSH BABY..NOCTURNAL IN NATURE AND BOTANICAL NAMES SOUNDS FUNNY...LIKE galagea something something

Thanks, I remember the picture from a few months back, I even sent the pix to a wildlife centre in UK and they did confirm it was a Potto..I have since been to London zoo to see them. Intriguing animals..
