The red ruffed lemur is one of the largest and most colourful lemurs, with a bright red coat and a black face, feet and tail. It is one of the few primates that builds a nest to give birth, and it can have up to 6 babies at once, which is exceptional for a primate of its size. It plays a vital role as a pollinator, pushing its long snout into big flowers to reach the nectar. It lives only on the Masoala Peninsula in northeast Madagascar and suffers from heavy deforestation. The park actively supports Antongil Conservation, a charity that has released 5 lemurs into the Farankaraina forest since 2018.
