Southern red-fronted brown lemur - adult female feeding, Kirindy Reserve, Madagascar
A second series of photos from this charming species, featuring a juvenile male and an adult female. The male is easily recognized by its red front, which is black in females. Southern red-fronted brown lemurs live and move in groups. As a tactical photography tip: very often if you find one taking a particular path in the canopy, you can anticipate on the rest of the group following the same route. In our experience this holds true for many lemur species.




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".
