Ringtailed lemurs, that is...I'm not quite sure how many are in this photo!

What an utterly fantastic photo! The caption says it all. They are brave in amongst all those pricklies!

Lorraine--thanks, I hope it is worthy of such a fine photographer as you...

Janice--gosh, I didn't even think of that myself, but yes, they are hanging on the spines like they weren't even there! Thanks for the comment!

Great shot, Firebird,
and Ringtailed Lemurs are great models. Their's long tails are beautiful.

Krystyna--yes, aren't they fabulous creatures? Thanks for coming to see them...!

I clicked on the photo to make it bigger, and actually the lemurs are only holding the branches that don't have thorns--that's a relief!

Lemurs are rare exotic animals. It is probably so fascinating to see them in person. Thanks for the pleasant post. God bless you always.
