A rain-soaked loris found under a roadside tree was rescued and brought to a police station by a kind passerby in Wenshan, southeast China's Yunnan Province.

Police officers dried its fur, kept it warm and fed it fresh bananas. A wildlife expert later identified the tiny survivor as a pygmy slow loris, an endangered species under China's highest level of national protection. Now in the care of wildlife authorities, it will receive a full health check and rehabilitation before returning to the wild.
