"At first, Nekaris had installed some ladder-like bridges between trees
that were used elsewhere in monkey conservation, but the lorises didn’t
take to them. Then she realised that the answer might lie with some of
the local farmers’ irrigation pipes. Because of the hilly terrain, some
of the pipes were suspended high above ground level, and lorises had
been seen crossing them. Nekaris hit on the idea of installing more of
them, which would benefit the farmers, too. Twelve days after
installation, motion-sensor cameras showed the animals starting to creep
across the new pipes."
