Pelycodus (SciiFii)

The American golden lemur (Pelycodus aureus) is a species of lemur-like adapiform strepsirrhine primate, despite its name, that originally lived from the Early Eocene in what is now North America and Europe as two extinct species, Pelycodus jarrovii and Pelycodus danielsae, and the genus itself was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and introduced throughout the modern rainforests, forests, swamps, and open woodlands across the southwestern, southern, southeastern, and eastern regions of North America to help boost biodiversity. The American golden lemur is a medium-sized adapiform, growing to be about 3.4 feet (41 inches) in length, including the tail, and weighing around 6.3 kilograms (13 lbs) on average. The American golden lemur is primarily an arboreal and quadrupedal frugivore, feeding primarily on fruits and small nuts, although it also feeds on seeds and insects for proteins. The American golden lemur lives in multi-male groups with some females, and males form dominance hierarchies. Males participate in caring for and protecting infants. Infants are born at any time of year after a gestation period of between 162 and 180 days. The American golden lemur has a maximum lifespan of about 30 years in the wild, although the captive specimens can live to be around 35 years. The conservation status of the American golden lemur is Least Concern due to successful conservation efforts, the American golden lemur's wide range and its tolerance to many of the human activities.
