Hesperolemur (SciiFii)

The California lemur (Hesperolemur californianus) is a species of lemur-like adapiform strepsirrhine primate, despite its name, that originally lived from late Middle Eocene in what is now southern California as an extinct species, Hesperolemur actius, 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 southern, southwestern, and western regions of North America to help boost biodiversity. The California lemur is a somewhat average-sized adapiform primate, with the length of about 102 centimeters (3.3 feet), of which 57 centimeters (1.8 feet) is its tail, and 45.5 centimeters (1.4 feet) is the head and body, while the average weight of this species is around 4.5 kilograms (9.9 lbs). The California lemur is an omnivore and feeds mostly on flowers, fruits, leaves, and insects. The California lemur is in the order of primates as it possesses characteristics such as grasping hands, binocular vision and is highly intelligent. The California lemur possesses a long non-prehensile tail used for balance when jumping from branch to branch and for communication within the closely knit, female-led social group. This species of adapiform primate is primarily diurnal but has periods of feeding activity at night too. California lemurs have a lifespan of approximately 20 years in the wild and reach sexual maturity after 20 months. They give birth usually in late March or early April, after a gestation period of 125 days. The conservation status of the California lemur is Least Concern due to successful conservation efforts, the California lemur's wide range and its tolerance to many of the human activities.
