Tupa
Tupa refers to a genus of small, nocturnal primates known as tarsiers, found in Southeast Asia. These unique creatures are characterized by their large eyes, which provide exceptional night vision, allowing them to hunt insects and small vertebrates in low light. Tupa are known for their distinctive traits, including elongated fingers and toes that aid in climbing. They are social animals, often living in small groups. Tarsiers are considered a key species in studying primate evolution due to their unique physical characteristics and behaviors, offering insights into the ancestral traits shared with higher primates, including humans.
