- Lemurs, primates belonging to the suborder Strepsirrhini which branched off from other primates less than 63 million years ago, evolved on the island of Madagascar, for at least 40 million years. They share some traits with the most basal primates, and thus are often confused as being ancestral to modern monkeys, apes, and humans.

Les preuves fossiles de l'évolution d'un peigne dentaire, un trait partagé par les lémuriformes et leurs plus proches parents, les lorisiformes, pèsent lourdement sur l'histoire évolutive des strepsirrhiniens et la colonisation de Madagascar par les lémurs.
These animals are unique to the island and display a range of interesting behaviors from singing like a whale (the indri) to sashaying across the sand like a ballet dancer (the sifaka). Below you will learn more about these fascinating creatures. Lemur history.

Lemur ancestors likely landed on the island of Madagascar about 70 million years ago. There are over 100 species of lemurs. Lemurs have unique physical characteristics. As seed dispersers, lemurs are creators of the forest. Lemurs need our help to be saved from extinction. Why are lemurs so interesting? Lemurs live in Madagascar, and nowhere else.
