Red-bellied Lemur - feeding 5, Ranomafana, Madagascar We found this Red-bellied Lemur on our morning hike as it was making a lot of noise straight above us in the canopy. They are loud and sloppy eaters. Taking loud cracks at the nuts and constantly dropping the leftovers.

The Red-bellied lemur

The red-bellied lemur (Eulemur rubriventer) is a medium sized strepsirrhine primate with a luxuriant chestnut brown coat. This lemur is endemic to eastern Madagascan rainforests and is distinguished by patches of white skin below the eyes, giving rise to a "teardrop" effect, particularly conspicuous in the male.

The species, first identified in the year 1850, exhibits diurnal behaviour and marked sexual dichromism. The red-bellied lemur has been studied extensively since the mid-1980s,.. more
