Indri coming down to human level This was a special moment for all guests visiting the Andasibe forest this day. This Indri came down from the tree tops and hung low in a tree, nearly at eye level and only about 10 metres away from us. It hung there curiously for a few minutes, after which it dissapeared in 3 seconds completely out of sight, using giant vertical leaps, almost as if to say...I rule this forest.
