How do Lemurs say goodbye?


It was the last day for one of the researchers I was working with so we took at trip to the lemur center for him to say his goodbyes to the lemurs. We went into the free-ranging enclosures and were able to see these amazing creatures very close. Some of the lemurs were out in the forest.

I didn't realize it at the time but it was also my farwell trip to the lemur center. I finished testing a few days after this and started work on the paper about our research. I loved my time at the Duke Lemur center this summer and I will definitley go back, even if it is just to visit the lemurs!
