Lemurs are found nowhere else on Earth except Madagascar and the nearby Comoros Islands. These unique primates evolved in isolation for millions of years, resulting in over 100 different species ranging from the tiny mouse lemur to the large indri.
Experience the haunting calls of the indri echoing through rainforests, watch sifakas perform their famous sideways dance, and encounter ring-tailed lemurs with their distinctive striped tails. Each species has unique adaptations and behaviors that make Madagascar a lemur-lover's dream destination.
