This adult ring-tailed lemur in Madagascar's Berenty Reserve is exceptionally rare—it has blue eyes! While ring-tailed lemur infants are born with blue eyes, they typically shift to golden brown as they mature. Blue eyes are highly unusual in mammals.
Congrats to Derek (FB jessicamvangorder) for being our final winner in the #WorldLemurFestival #LemurArtChallenge!

Lemurs play a key role in ecosystems by helping to maintain the growth of plants & trees by dispersing seeds.
Yet, climate change & illegal trade threaten these valuable species.
