Meet Babis, Louie and Zoe
Lemurs are called after the Latin word lemur which means “spirits of the night” because of their “strange” behavior, especially in the night. But we can’t say the same!
Lemurs at Farma of Rhodes are cute, adorable animals who like to play at the facilities specially made for them. Sometimes, when the sun is hot, they just like to stand there and enjoy a sunbathing.
Be friendly with them, they get angry very easy!
Lemurs in Rhodes? Yes, in Farma of Rhodes!
More about lemurs
Lemurs are very cute, humanlike and very charismatic. Are a species of primate known as ‘Prosimians’ and even if are not closely related like chimpanzees and other apes they are still family. In the wild, lemurs exist only at Madagascar where they face a lot of dangers.
Modern lemurs range from 2.5 inches to 2.5 feet tall and from 30 gr to 6.8 kg in weight. Lemurs are very smart animals and of course the smarter a lemur, the more popular it is.
There are some different lemur species out there, in our Farm you will find 6 lovely ring-tailed Lemurs. Most species spend majority of their live high on the trees but ring-tailed Lemurs spend most of the time on the ground. You can recognize a ring-tailed lemur from the characteristic black rings formed on his tail.
That specie of lemur has some characteristics that make it stand out, such as the “stink fights”. Ring-tailed lemurs must compete with each other for limited resources like food, territory and mates, and competition grows especially fierce among males during breeding season.
Lemurs mature at two years and live for about 18 years, but a lot of the babies don’t live to be that old.
