Lemurs are small to medium-sized primates native to the island of Madagascar. They belong to the suborder Strepsirrhini and are known for their large eyes, long tails, and unique vocalizations. There are over 100 species of lemurs, each with distinct characteristics and behaviors. They primarily live in trees and are social animals, often found in groups called troops. These animals are primarily herbivorous, feeding on fruits, leaves, and flowers. Lemurs are also known for their strong sense of smell, which they use to communicate and find food. Due to habitat loss and hunting, many lemur species are currently endangered, making conservation efforts crucial for their survival.
