This mother lemur is carrying her baby around, you can just
see it’s head and hand sticking out. The
baby holds on to the underside of the mother and she keeps it snuggled pretty
close. The APs went to the same lemur
park about 4 weeks later and they got to pet the baby, they said it was about
the size of a small kitten, and the mother wasn’t nearly as protective of it as
she was when we were there.
We went over to another part of the Park where the foosas
were. There were about six foosas in a
chain link enclosure. They were amazing
to watch. They weren’t as big as I
thought they were going to be, or else they were young ones. According to Madagascar, the movie, the foosa
like to lunch on lemurs. Sure glad they
couldn’t get to the cute lemurs we had been playing with that morning.
They are definitely meat eaters!
