Lemurs are an ancient form of the primate called prosimlans. In particular, the Ring-tailed lemurs are grey in color with a white belly, a long, fluffy tail with alternating black and white rings, and their thumb and large toe are opposable.
Lemurs have large eyes.
Their hind legs are larger than their front legs. This enables them to jump great distances. Ring-tailed lemurs are very shy and timid. They are also very playful animals. They live in large groups with equal number of each sex.
