Types Of Lemurs In Madagascar
Madagascar is sometimes called Lemuria. Here you can find 99 species and subspecies of lemurs, of which 39 were discovered quite recently, between 2000 and 2008. Lemurs have round, often very large and glowing in the dark eyes, elongated muzzle, long but not clinging, as happens with monkeys, tail, short front legs (they jump on two hind legs). They have a piercing voice, similar to the crying of a capricious child. At night in the woods, there are loud “Lemuria concerts”. Lemurs live in flocks on trees, eating insects and fruits. In Madagascar and neighboring islands, the population considers lemurs to be sacred animals. There is a legend that once upon a time lemurs were humans, and then, living in the forest, they grew wool and turned into animals. When some careless lemur falls into a trap, a Malagasy man will surely release him and let him out, and if the lemur is wounded, he will heal him. When a peasant or hunter sees a lemur in the forest, he bows down and greets it as if he were a close relative. This family includes mouse lemur – the smallest representative of primates (12 – 13 cm long), lying (reaching a length of 100 – 115 cm), as well as Katta, Mongo, etc. These nimble, mobile animals live mainly on trees in family groups, feed on fruits, insects, and lead a nightlife. The other family, the Indri, consists of short-tailed Indri, mossy Indri, and chilled Indri. Also, there is a strange creature with very tenacious front extremities, the arm.

What Monkey Has A Red Bottom? Monkeys With Red Bottom
Among the abundance of diverse fauna, almost the greatest interest of ordinary people is caused by monkeys. They are too similar to us, and at the same time, fundamentally different from us. Watching the apes is much more interesting than a crocodile. And among monkeys, the most interesting are monkeys with red bottoms. Just because of its unusual color. It is not quite right to call a monkey with such a distinctive feature “macaque with the red bottom”, because such coloring can be assigned to other primate species. This phrase is rather a simple one, established among people who are far from zoology. On the other hand, it clearly defines what kind of animal is meant. Let’s meet the monkeys with red bottoms.
