Welcome to Kirindi I realize I&#039;ve been very lengthy about sharing our Madagascar photos, for months in a row now. I think it is a story well worth of being documented thoroughly, yet hereby we arrive at the last major chapter of our journey: Kirindi. <br />
<br />
Kirindi is quite special. It&#039;s a very small settlement in very remote woods holding dozens of key species only appearing there. In fact, the wildlife there is so special that the settlement serves two purposes: primarily it is a biologist research center, yet it also welcomes a small amount of tourism. Of all the places we visited in Madagascar, this one had the most primitive accommodation and circumstances, yet its wildlife makes you soon forget that. <br />

The red-fronted lemur, also known as the red-fronted brown lemur or southern red-fronted brown lemur, is a species of lemur from Madagascar. Until 2001, it was considered a subspecies of the common brown lemur, ''E. fulvus''. In 2001, ''E. fulvus'' was split into several separate species, including ''Eulemur rufus'', in which this species was included. In 2008, ''E. rufus'' was split into two species, the red lemur and the red-fronted lemur . ''E. rufus'' covers the population on the west coast.. more
