Giant aye-aye (SciiFii)

The giant aye-aye (Daubentonia robusta robustus) is a species of large aye-aye lemur found in the rainforests of eastern Madagascar, and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and reintroduced to where the original now-extinct giant aye-aye subspecies once lived in. The giant aye-ayes are larger than their relatives, the common aye-aye, growing to be around 2-2.5 times larger than common aye-ayes, in length, height, and weight. They are an insectivores, feeding mainly on insects that live in the trees, and they drill them out with the help of their long clawed middle fingers, much like their smaller relatives. They are solitary throughout most of their lives, except during breeding seasons, when males attempt to find females of the same species to mate with. The conservation status of the giant aye-aye is Endangered due to habitat loss and sometimes superstition, however, the conservationists are attempting to save giant aye-ayes from going extinct again, through protecting their natural habitats, captive breeding, and educating people on what giant aye-ayes are really like, not through superstition, but through science.
