What does it look like?
This lemur has bizarre looks. With long twig-like middle finger, huge eyes, rat-like teeth, and large bat-like ears. It is classified as a rodent and is the largest nocturnal primate.
What and how does it eat?
It mostly eats nuts, grubs, fruits, nectar, seeds, and fungi. It uses its long middle finger as a tool for hunting its prey. It taps the bark of the tree and with its sensitive hearing detects the slightest movement. Studies have found that the aye-aye is capable of sensing insect movement at a depth of 12 feet. This lemur is an endangered species by both habitat destruction in northeastern Madagascar and widespread persecution by native Malagasy as a harbinger of bad luck.
What is their habitat like?
The aye-aye most of the time lives at the very top of trees. Cutting down trees where aye-aye's are found is illegal due to the fact that at one time too many trees were chopped down, reducing places for the aye-aye to live.
