A lemur is a type of prosimian primate that is wild only on the island of Madagascar. Lemur in Latin means âghostâ and many of the Malagasy people believe lemurs are similar to spirits or ghosts because of their haunting stare and night activity.
Lemurs are strepsirrhine primates, all species of which are endemic to Madagascar. They include the smallest primate in the world, Madame Berthe's mouse lemur, which weighs 30 grams (1.1 oz), and range up to the size of the indri, which can weigh as much as 9.5 kilograms (21 lb).amily Lemuridae consists of the ring-tailed lemur, the brown lemurs, the bamboo lemurs and the ruffed lemurs. There are 21 extant species and six subspecies.
