Alaotran Gentle Lemur - Hapalemur alaotrensis
The Alaotran Gentle Lemur is found only in the papyrus and reed beds of Lac Alaotra, the largest lake in Madagascar. These lemurs spend their time climbing throughout reed beds, hardly ever touching dry land. They live in groups of 2-9 animals, and defend their territories using calls and scent marking. They have one or two babies after a five-month pregnancy, and mothers carry around their babies on their backs.
Captive bred at the Birmingham Wildlife Conservation Park.
