For #WorldLemurDay, Centre ValBio organized a trip for Nature Center students to visit Studio oloNala! The students were excited to see the same wildlife they draw in their own sketchbooks reflected on the walls, and gathered inspiration from their own walk through Ranomafana National Park! 🔍🌳

#FunFactFriday: Ring-tailed lemurs are flexible foragers! 🍃 Their diet includes fruit, leaves, bark, flowers, sap—and sometimes insects. Since food in their forests can be scarce, they often travel on the ground to find their next bite. #Lemurs #Wildlife

Lemurs live only in Madagascar & all species are endangered. They help forests grow but face habitat loss, hunting & the pet trade.

Albert, our black-and-white ruffed lemur, is going bananas for #WorldLemurDay! These endangered lemurs inhabit the rainforests of Madagascar and primarily feed on fruit, as well as nectar, flowers, and leaves. Their fruit-heavy diet makes them important seed spreaders, helping the forest grow!
