What does the lemur say? Check out Alida Hasiniaina& #39;s work on vocal repertoire in mouse lemurs. She shows that vocalizations can be used to discriminate species, very useful if species are cryptic! https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1002/ece3.6177">https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/...
Lemurs are more than just cute mammals, they play an important role in forest health! Here is Onja Razafindratsima& #39;s ( @onjarazafi) work on the importance of lemur seed dispersal.
