What are some facts about endangered madagascar lemurs? |
I need it for a report There are different levels of threat to the survival of various lemur species and subspecies. Some lemurs, such as the Red-ruffed Lemur and some types of bamboo lemurs, are considered "Critically Endangered," with only a few remaining in the wild and a drastically reduced range of habitat. A step down is the list of "Endangered" lemurs, which includes the Hairy-eared Dwarf Lemur, the Golden Brown Mouse Lemur, and the Black and White Ruffed Lemur. These lemurs are not as close to the brink of extinction as those on the critical list but still face a good possibility of vanishing in the near future. "Vulnerable" species are facing a risk of extinction in the mid-term future, but not as soon as those on the endangered and critically endangered lists. The Black Lemur, Crowned Lemur, and a number of Fork-marked Lemurs are all on the vulnerable list. The group with the best chance of survival is considered "Lower Risk," and includes the Avahi, the Lesser Bamboo Lemur, and a number of Sportive lemurs. Visit the 2000 IUCN Red List of Threatened Species for more information about specific species and the criteria for each category. Here are some good websites: they are cute and make good characters in a movie |
