Happy World Lemur Day!!

Here at the GSC, we're lucky to care for both ring-tailed lemurs and red-ruffed lemurs! their name comes from the Latin word “lemures,” meaning “ghosts” or “nocturnal spirits”? The Malagasy people of Madagascar believed lemurs were phantoms of departed souls, haunters of the night 👻
