There are at least two distinct tribes
OF Malagasy dwarfs, who are among
the smallest people in the world. The
kimos average only feet @ inches in

have remarkably long arms and are
bold in defending their territory, using
spear and bow. OF pastoral habits thew
excel IN certain handicrafts. They dwell
IN the southern center of the island, at
high elevation above the sea.
Even more monkeylike are the Be.
hosy, who occupy densely wooded
country among the hills of Bemaraha.
They jump from tree to tree Just like
monkeys and are not easily followed.
