How cute. β€οΈ
Happy Saturday from the most handsome blue-eyed boy π
Even though blue-eyed black lemur infant McAvoy is now eight months old, he's still the same ball of chaotic energy that he's always been! Enjoy some throwback photos to two-month-old McAvoy, doing the absolute MOST to make momma Leigh's life difficult π€ͺ

π€© TOMORROW π€©
Good news: we have the weather and staffing to run an off-season General Tour this Saturday 12/9! Like our summer General Tours, this tour is an open house format, and guests can arrive any time before 11:30am to walk around and see the lemurs. Because the lemurs' winter housing needs may mildly affect their visibility to guests, we are offering a discounted off-season rate of $12 per person (children 2 and under are free) π₯³
Tickets MUST be purchased in advance to attend! Tickets and information are available on our website at lemur.duke.edu/GT

Mid-week appreciation post for crowned lemur Mosi π§‘
This handsome male won over guests' hearts on our tour path this summer. He can often be found cuddling up with current breeding partner Aria or expertly retrieving his favorite snacks from puzzle feeders. Mosi passed his talent for finger painting, as well as his majestic mutton chops, on to son Ma'at π¨

The DLC's own Golden Bachelor, red fronted lemur Cardinal, has moved in with a new companion: blue-eyed black lemur Kidman! π
We routinely shuffle lemurs around as the seasons change, and this fall's new It Couple are geriatric lemurs Kidman (29) and Cardinal (28). This mixed-species pair have been spotted cuddling in baskets and lounging together in the sun. Both of these elderly residents are past breeding age, so they're a perfect match for lazy afternoons in the forest βοΈ

Sending you some good Friday vibes from our three youngest aye-ayes: Binx, Melisandre, and Agatha βΊοΈ
In the second photo, Melisandre is enjoying a slender bamboo feeder. Unlike other lemurs, aye-ayes have rodent-like incisors (which you can see very clearly on Mel) that can chew through almost any substance. We hide desirable treats, like worms, inside of bamboo feeders to encourage our aye-ayes to use those strong teeth the way they would in the wild. The steel bolts that you can see in the third photo help us make sure that our aye-ayes' structural enrichment stays upright, since steel is one of the few materials stronger than aye-aye incisors πͺ±

Hi Aye-Ayes!!

Be honest, have you named any of your lemurs after characters from the Madagascar movies? Maurice is an Aye-Aye right?
