A prehistoric sunbather
Lemurs enjoy sunbathing, especially after a cold night. They can often be seen sitting facing the sun with their arms out to the sides.
The tail of the ring-tailed lemur is longer than its entire body.
Ring-tailed lemurs are a type of prosimian. Prosimians evolved before monkeys and apes.
The ring-tailed lemur spends most of its time on the ground, unlike other lemur species.
Meet the ring-tailed lemurs at Abeskoven.
