Protecting the Alaotran gentle lemur in Madagascar
The Alaotran gentle lemur, or bandro, lives only on the shores of Madagascar’s largest lake, Alaotra. Now locals have banded together to preserve this slice of fragile biodiversity. The NGO Madagascar Wildlife Conservation uses ecotourism, education and conservation to bring development to the region and survival to its star furry resident.

Baby Alaotran gentle lemur, Raiky, enjoys a piggy-back ride on older brother, Tsingy, at Chessington World of Adventures Resort. The youngster is one of the two baby lemurs born recently at the zoo.
Mark Boardman, zoo manager, says: With only an estimated 2,500 left in the wild, Alaotran gentle lemurs are a critically endangered species and their population is ever decreasing. At Chessington we are committed to ensuring their prolonged existence.
