Episode 128: Red Ruffed Lemurs Fading Fast

Red Ruffed Lemurs are a critically endangered primate from the island of Madagascar. These highly charismatic animals are an example of the pressures many species are facing on this island nation. Due to habitat degradation and other human caused pressures, Madagascar is now recognized as one of the worst biodiversity crises we find ourselves in. However, many organizations are working extremely hard to ensure these lemurs and the other species on the island survive. Patreon: Please considering supporting us at Patreon HERE.
