The Ring-tailed lemur has a very distinctive bushy tail with
alternating bands of black and white rings. It also has a black, pointed muzzle,
which is typical among the various species of lemur.
Lemurs are
vegetarian
Lemurs are found solely on the island of Madagascar, an island
off of southeast Africa. They prefer more open areas in the south and typically
walk on the ground or on large limbs in the trees. This differentiates them from
other lemur species, which prefer forested areas and travel mostly in trees.
Ring-tailed lemurs live in groups of five to thirty members.
They have distinct
hierarchies
Ring-tailed lemurs have a reflective layer in the back of their eyes similar to that of cats. This allows them to have very good vision at night. The sense of smell is important to the lemur. The Ring-tailed lemur has a highly scented tail, which is used to warn other Ring-tailed lemurs.
