Description
A Red Ruffed Lemur with attitude
Red-ruffed Lemurs are only found on the island of Madagascar where they spend most of their time in the upper canopy of the dense tropical forest. They are very vocal, using sounds to define territories and warn each other of predators.
Because lemurs cannot manipulate their fingers well, their six bottom teeth form a �toothcomb� they use to groom themselves and other members of their social group. They also use a specialized claw on the second toes of their hind feet to brush their coat.
