  • Tarsiers are haplorrhine primates of the family Tarsiidae, which is itself the lone extant family within the infraorder Tarsiiformes. Although the group was once more widespread, all of its species living today are found in the islands of Southeast Asia, specifically the Philippines, Malaysia, Indonesia, and Brunei.
    Tarsiers are small animals with enormous eyes; each eyeball is approximately 16 millimetres in diameter and is as large as, or in some cases larger than, its entire brain. Tarsiers have soft, velvety fur, which is generally buff, beige, or ochre in color.
    Tarsiers are the only extant entirely carnivorous primates: they are primarily insectivorous, and catch insects by jumping at them. Their favorite prey are arthropods like beetles, spiders, cockroaches, grasshoppers, and walking sticks.
    Tarsiers tend to be extremely shy animals and are sensitive to bright lights, loud noises, and physical contact. They have been reported to behave suicidally when stressed or kept in captivity.
    Due to their small size, tarsiers are prey to snakes, owls, lizards, and cats. When a predator is present the tarsiers surround the threat vocalizing and attacking it.

    Tarsiers aren't monkeys though, they're slightly more primitive.

    There's no such thing as a tarsier monkey, they're just called tarsiers, the word "monkey" only applies to anthropoids that have tails, while tarsiers are not anthropoids, tarsiers are the only extant family of the infraorder Tarsiiformes, both tarsiers and anthropoids (infraorder Simiiformes) are haplorhines, which are primates of the suborder Haplorhini.
