Artist's Comments

This is my absolute favorite picture from my 2 hours at the lemur center. The rest of the group was in a rush to go see the other lemurs but i stuck around at one cage so i could get some pictures. This female Black Lemur came to check me out and pose for the camera.
I don't really know what strikes me about this picture...her eyes i guess. All the others' were brown, her's were more yellow than ever. I guess her eyes remind me of Grinning Trickster (the fox) So much life in her eyes. she stared right at me for the longest time..then all the rest of the group came rushing back and scared her off...(insert unkind words here)

No i don't think they had a Bamboo Lemur there.

[link] thats a list of all the lemurs that they house and take care of. Check it out, its pretty cool. There are some with golden eyes but none named 'bamboo lemur' Does it go by any other name?

Oh yes. I meant the Gray Gentle Lemur. Sorry about the mix up. ^^;

Yeah i saw all of the lemurs except most of the nocturnal ones, they were all sleeping cause they had just been fed or something.

I don't mean to be rude or anything, but are you sure this isn't a female Black Lemur? [link]
Male Mongoose Lemurs look like this: [link]
They do house some Black Lemurs at the center, from what I understand, so it seems possible that perhaps they put the Blacks in with the Mongoose Lemurs, since they behave similarly? Just a guess!

Anyhow, this (and your other Lemur photos) are just beautiful! I'll have to watch you!
You say you might try interning out at the DLC? That's so cool! I'm thinking about doing something like that there, when I get older! :D

It is very possible that they put some Black Lemurs in with the mongoose lemurs. The other pictures i have from that cage are all mongoose lemurs so i just assumed it was some weird variation or something since the tour guide didn't say anything about there being any other lemurs in there with them.

Thank you for the information and i'm glad you enjoyed the picture.
