The island of Madagascar is one of the most geographically diverse places on the planet. Many distinct animal and plant species call this tropical paradise home. In fact, Madagascar is also home to some of the most unique and endangered plants and animals in the world. The lemur is one of these creatures.

Eighty-eight species of lemurs exist today, all of which are native to Madagascar. The reason lemurs have been able to thrive in Madagascar is because no other primates inhabit the island.
