Learn about the animated antics of the lemurs at Safari West. The lemur is a primate just like a human being. Lemurs are in their own category, though just like apes and monkeys. One type of lemur is the ring tailed lemur. I feel fortunate that I was able to work with the ring-tailed lemur. The ringtailed lemurs got their name because the ringtail lemur tails have rings on them like raccoons. Some people may think that they have seen a flying lemur because they are very athletic and can jump very far, but actually there aren’t any flying lemurs that I know. So if you are looking for flying lemur facts, the fact is that they do not exist. If you are looking for facts on lemurs in general, there are many. There are a number of different species of lemurs, the ones that I got to work with and that are in teh videos are the ringtail lemurs and black and white ruffed lemurs .
