lemurs at safari west

The lemur is a primate just like a human being. Lemurs are in their own category, though just like apes and monkeys. One type of lemur is the ring tailed lemur. I feel fortunate that I was able to work with the ring-tailed lemur. The ringtailed lemurs got their name because the ringtail lemur tails have rings on them like raccoons. Some people may think that they have seen a flying lemur because they are very athletic and can jump very far, but actually there aren't any flying lemurs that I know. So if you are looking for flying lemur facts, the fact is that they do not exist. If you are looking for facts on lemurs in general, there are many. There are a number of different species of lemurs, the ones that I got to work with and that are in teh videos are the ringtail lemurs and black and white ruffed lemurs that some may just think of as the black lemurs since there is a type of species of lemurs called red and white ruffed lemurs. The black lemur or black and white ruffed lemurs are very loud and can be heard from quite some distance throughout the lemur environments on the island of Madagascar. There are many lemurs of Madagascar, which is an island off the coast of Africa. There are many interesting factst about lemurs that aren't commonly know like their undigested food in their feces help fertilize the forests that they live in. The lemur habitat consists of forests because the lemurs like to feed and hide from predators in the trees. The Madagascar lemur live sometimes live in vanilla trees and are often killed when people chop down the trees to get the vanilla- so one reason to use artificial vanilla instead of pure Madagascar vanilla. Some may think of Madagascar as the lemur kingdom, but actuallly the many types of lemurs that live on the island of Madagascar live in troops or groups of lemurs and are led by females. The videos highlight the dramatic lemur and show their humorous side and athletic ability. Watch the videos if you want to see moving pictures of lemurs or still lemur pictures. Just please don't ask where can i buy a lemur or where can I find ringtail lemur for sale because these wonderful animals belong in the wild- they would NOT make good pets.
