maki catta ou lémur catta

One of the lemurs, this primate has a tail longer that its body. It lives in families up to 18 members. Herbivore and insectivore, ring-tailed lemurs can eat little mammals from time to time. It lives in South of Madagascar and even though its living areas are endangered, and even though the animal is listed vulnerable by IUCN, ring-tailed lemurs has a pretty good reproduction in zoos.
