Lemurs

Lemurs are primates that are exclusive to being found in the island of Madagascar - a small island found to the southeast coast of Africa. There are many lemurs and many are pretty diverse. From ring-tails to mouse lemurs, lemurs in general are interesting and unique creatures - though it's a shame of their habitat loss in the recent times.

"At least 17 species and eight genera are believed to have become extinct in the 2,000 years since humans first arrived in Madagascar." A real shame if that's the case. So many unique and large species of lemurs were wiped out recently too.

So go ahead, discuss anything related about lemurs!

They are really cute. XD I remember that lemurs also have great jumps - well at least the sifaka. XD

Lemurs sure do appear very different from each other. They all look so unique and varied. Pretty social creatures too. XD

Ruffed lemurs are neat too. XD Though can be intimidating if they start howling.

Wow a baby lemur? XD I bet it was adorable. :P

I never got the chance to hold a lemur, let alone see one too close. Need to see more zoos. XD They're definitely curious little guys.

Yeah, it was a baby Ring-tailed. I believe it was at the Little River Zoo. Though, that was a few years ago.

I think the OKC and Tulsa Zoos may have them, could be wrong.

Ring-tails in general are very cute lemurs, so getting the chance to see such a young one - awesome. :P

Ring-tails are pretty funny too. :P Gotta love their iconic tails too. :P

Spot on!
Ringtails are certainly the most iconic lemurs.

What's the name on the one in the third picture of the 1st post?

I believe that's a sifaka. Not familiar with the species of sifakas; I think it's Verreaux's.
