Slow loris anesthesia and monitoring resources

Quick question for anyone working with Nycticebus: what references are you relying on for short-procedure anesthesia and intra-op monitoring? I’ve had decent results using alfaxalone [redacted]/kg IM with 1–2% isoflurane for 15–20 minute ocular exams, but I’m seeing consistent bradycardia coinciding with their freeze response, so I’d love papers, CE notes, or protocols you trust to mitigate that behavior-linked drop.

Quick add for the 6 a.m. crowd: a bright headlamp plus a pop-open umbrella while you clap works as quiet “humane hazing,” and it makes you look bigger without yelling, @hwright08. If you notice them fixating on unsecured trash near Oak Street, report the bin location and we’ll prioritize that first. Small caveat: if it’s pup season or you spot a den, skip hazing — tight leash, slow back-out.
