Now I’m reminded of Madagascar, here’s a cuddly lemur I saw in Isalo.
Lemurs are very easy to get any photograph of (if you find them), but very difficult to get a good photograph of.
Lemur
Madagascar, 2015
I had the most amazing time when @lyriumglow visited me from NZ two months ago. We did so many fun things together. I took her to my local mini zoo, and we were somehow lucky enough to be at the right place at the right time throughout the entire day. We were the only people at the lemur enclosure when a zookeeper passed by and asked us if we wanted to feed the lemurs. So we got these adorable babies all to ourselves ♥ We also stroked fallow deer and got intensely nibbled by horses.

Yesterday we introduced you to one of our special boys- Goose. As stated, Goose suffered an injury presumably from an aerial predator on June 16, 2015, at just 2 months old. While in treatment for his injuries, Goose’s round-the-clock care included feedings every four hours, designing a specially furnished room, and providing him with a battalion of stuffed animal surrogates.
During this time, the staff also began taking Goose for special acupuncture appointments followed by cold laser therapy treatment. While he did not regain function of his paralyzed leg, he did regain motion in his toes, allowing him to grasp objects. On July 8th, the staff watched as Goose was reintroduced to his family. It was a happy day for both staff and lemurs as his family readily took him back. Tune in again tomorrow for another update on Goose’s road to recovery.
