“I adore lemurs. They’re extremely gentle, well-mannered, pretty, and yet great fun. I should have married one.”

I took a side trip to Madagascar in the final weeks of my reporting trip and encountered the absolutely incredible call of the Indri indri lemur.
The Indri, the largest remaining lemurs in Madagascar get credit for the name lemur, which is related to the Latin for ghost. Indri calls can travel 2 km.
The story is either the first Europeans heard them coming from the forest and thought they sounded like ghosts or that it comes from Malagasy legend that the lemurs are the ghosts of their ancestors

This is the skull of a kind of giant lemur from Madagascar that became extinct shortly after humans arrived on the island.
