Lemur Love
Lemurs are primates found only on the African island of Madagascar and some tiny neighboring islands. Because of its geographic isolation, Madagascar is home to many amazing animals found nowhere else on Earth. Lemurs may have floated there eons ago on “rafts” of vegetation and evolved in isolation over countless centuries.
Ring-tailed lemurs are unmistakable because of their long, vividly striped, black-and-white tail. They are familiar residents of many zoos.
Lemurs use their hands and feet to move nimbly through the trees, but cannot grip with their tails as some of their primate cousins do. Ring-tailed lemurs also spend a lot of time on the ground, which is unusual among lemur species. They forage for fruit, which makes up the greater part of their diet, but also eat leaves, flowers, tree bark, and sap.

Lemur parent wants to be a model but the kid’s having NONE OF IT.
‘What about me mum ? – says the kid :o)
Love the wide grab of front hand and clenched grab of the left hand.
Love the out of focus ‘classic stripey tail’ which makes the two main characters stand out as in all your photos. ANOTHER WINNER !! xx
