Weasel Lemur
The Weasel Lemur (Lepilemur mustelinus), also known as the Weasel Sportive Lemur or Greater Weasel Lemur, is a species of lemur native to northeastern Madagascar. Its dorsal side is a reddish-brown colour, and greyish brown ventrally.
The Weasel Lemur is predominantly a leaf-eater, supplemented with fruits and flowers. They are an arboreal species, and travel through the trees by leaping. Weasel Lemur groups consist solely of a mother and its offspring; the males are solitary, and are very territorial. Like other lemurs, they are nocturnal.
