FfFfFfFF 41,551 Posted August 8, 2020 Fota Wildlife Park has announced the birth of two black and white ruffed lemur babies. The baby lemurs were born to mother Cloud who is 18 years old and father Paraic, an eight-year-old who was also born in Fota Wildlife Park. The black and white ruffled lemur (Varecia variegata) is native to the tropical forests of Eastern Madagascar and has been classified as critically endangered by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) due to hunting and habitat loss and fragmentation. There are fewer than 250 black and white ruffed lemurs remaining in the wild today. Commenting on the new arrivals, Lead Ranger Teresa Power said the lemur babies are settling in nicely. "We are delighted to announce two new black and white ruffed lemur babies, and they seem to get on great with their twin brothers who love playing with them," she said.
