Good news for the world's rarest lemur! A scientific survey has revealed that the Greater bamboo lemur, Prolemur simus, exists in more locations than previously recorded. Less than 100 Greater Bamboo Lemur were known to exist in the wild.

What a beautiful face he has. I hope and pray that he and his kind will be able to survive. I read recently that since the military coup earlier this year, people have been eating lemurs as bushmeat amid the turmoil that is now happening in Madagascar. Thanks Simone.

Madagascar is in turmoil and much of its wildlife in danger. I pray that this baby will be properly protected. Thanks Simone
