	ANIMAL BYTES - Duivenbode's Lory
		The body of the Duivenbode's lory is predominantly dark brown with a yellow ring around the head and a hooked, flish beak.

	The Oasis Sanctuary, LTD - Notes from a Lory Lover
		Lories are generally distinguished from Lorikeets by the shape of the tail, with Lorikeets generally having a long, pointed tail.
		Lories have evolved a speedy metabolism that utilizes the high carbohydrate food sources available to them in the wild; they will feed intermittently throughout the day and must be provided with food at all times since they are vulnerable to problems (shock, coma and even death) due to low blood sugar.
		Lories are very active both on the ground as well as climbing and need a large, spacious cage with plenty of climbing structures (rope, plastic chain, "boings", etc.), floor space for hopping and rolling around and varied toys to entertain them.

	The Lory Link
		The names Lory and Lorikeet are often used to mean both types of bird and, for example, in Australia, all are usually referred to as Lorikeets.
		A lory will tend to bond to one human and this adoption of a human is a main attraction for some lory owners.
		Lories are excellent mimics and will very quickly learn to mimic the telephone ringing, the calls of other animals such as cats, noise of running water if they can normally hear this, doorbells, beepers and some can even learn words and sentences if they hear these repeated often enough from a human, TV or radio.
