RING-TAILED LEMUR PROFILE

Posted on January 15, 2016March 7, 2016 by thepocketzoo

Scientific Name: Lemur catta

Region:  Madagascar

Size: Head to tail Lemurs are roughly 45cm-55cm long and weigh between 5 – 7.5
pounds.

Diet: Herbivores (Plants only)

Lifespan:  Ring-tailed Lemurs in the wild can live up to 18 years old though
some have lived a little longer in captivity

Status in the Wild:  Endangered



Ring-tailed Lemurs are fascinating little primates, found in the wild, only on
the African island of Madagascar, they are intelligent, social creatures and can
be found in most zoos world wide.

The Ring-tailed Lemur is instantly recognisable by its long bushy black and
white ringed tail. Like all primates Ring-tailed Lemurs are exceptional climbers
and do spend a portion of their time in the trees of their dry forested
Madagascan home. However unlike some of their primate relatives Ring-tailed
Lemurs cannot use their tail for gripping or swinging from trees. Due to
evolving in relative isolation on Madagascar, with few predators, Ring-tailed
lemurs are also happy to spend the majority of their time on the ground, which
is unusual among lemur species. They forage on the forest floor for fruit, which
makes up most of their diet, nuts, leaves, flowers, tree bark, and sap.

Though they make a range of different sounds and calls Ring-tailed Lemurs
primary means of communication is through smell. These little Lemurs have
powerful scent glands and use their unique odour as a communication tool. Lemurs
mark their territory by scent and during mating season, male Lemur’s battle for
dominance by trying to out stink each other. They do this by covering their long
tails with smelly secretions and waving them in the air to determine who is the
most powerful.



Ring-tailed Lemurs tend to live in large family groups of up to 25 members, made
up of  males, females and babies, know as troops, each troop is led by a large
alpha female. Female Ring-tailed Lemur’s occasionally give birth to twins, but
single babies are more common. Baby Lemur’s cling to their Mother’s underside at
first, but after two weeks or so when they are strong enough they move around to
ride on the mother’s back, and begin to explore for the first time.

Unfortunately due to deforestation, poaching and capture to be sold as exotic
pets the number of these wonderful creatures left in the wild are declining
every year and sadly Ring-tailed Lemurs are now classified as endangered.
However on a positive note many zoos like Fota Island Wildlife Park in Cork ,
Ireland and fantastic charity’s  like the WWF , where you can adopt a Lemur, are
working hard to ensure the preservation of these beautiful creatures.





The Ring-tailed Lemurs are definitely the stars of the Fota Island Wildlife park
, which in itself is a wonderful semi open zoo located just outside Cork City in
the South of  Ireland.  Roaming freely around the park the Lemurs are fantastic
to watch , Fota’s Ring-tailed Lemurs are truly wonderful creature and the
experience of getting to see them so up close in such a great setting is what,
for us anyway ,  makes Fota Island Wildlife Park an absolute must for all animal
lovers living in or visiting Ireland. Don’t believe us check out their reviews
on Tripadvior.

Got any great Ring-tailed Lemur stories or pics from Fota or anywhere else send
them to us at thepocketzoo@gmail.com, tweet them to us @thepktzoo or share them
with us on Facebook.

    Thanks for writing this! I think lemurs and the way they have evolved is
    fascinating, something I hope to go on to do my MRes project in! I look
    forward to reading more of your posts in the future!

    Ring-tailed lemurs were some of my favorite animals when I were a lad. So
    I’m happy to see you’ve written about them!
