Their tails are as long as their body. Usually one young, but twins are common for the Thick-tailed galagos. Males have larger territories which overlaps those of several females. Not found on Madagascar. Dense undergrowth at the edges of rainforests, e.g., near rivers, at tree falls.
Galagos are nocturnal creatures.
They rely on their huge eyes and large mobile ears to find their prey and keep a lookout for predators. Like owls, they can rotate their heads 180 degrees. All galagos have soft dense fur. This keeps these tiny creatures warm as they forage in the cool night. They sleep during the day in a hollow tree or old bird nests.
