What's the fastest animal you could outrun?
Ever try to outrun an animal? Those fuckers are fast! If I had to, I could probably outrun an opossum, though.

2. Why isn't there a "fast loris"?

4. A dead one.
Although I was once forced into participating in some sort of athletic contest during a high school pep fest, and afterward, my best friend informed me that I "run like a deer". I was mortified.
So maybe a deer with a leg missing.
