indri
Part of speech: noun
Morphological type: simple
Etymology: Possibly from Malagasy endrina (“the lemur Indri indri”). A common explanation asserts that the word comes from the Malagasy indry (pronounced /ˈiɳɖʐʲ/) meaning “lo!” or “behold!”, or from indry izy (“There he is!”), which guides shouted to the French naturalist Pierre Sonnerat (1748–1814) upon seeing the animal, and which Sonnerat mistook for its name, but it has been suggested that Sonnerat studied indris too closely for this story to be plausible.
Inflected forms:

pos: noun

The indris are distuinguished by having only thirty teeth. [...] The Indri (Indris laniger) is the largest known species of the lemurine Quadrumana, measuring when erect more than three feet in height, and is of very remarkable form. [...] The indris inhabit the forests of Madagascar. They are very gentle, and although not remarkable for intelligence, are trained by the natives (who call the indri, "the man of the woods"), to hunt, probably for birds.
The Indri (Indri indri; top left), the largest prosimian at up to three feet long (excluding tail) and 22 pounds, eats plant matter.
The indri inhabits coastal and montane rainforest from sea level to about 1,800 meters.
Indris are known for their calls, some of which are truly eerie and can be heard for miles in the dense undergrowth.

I felt a gust of intense irritation, which passed as quickly as it came. I flung myself into the chair again, and pressed my hands on my forehead. The puma began once more.

I may remind the reader that if Southern Tibet were at a lower elevation its climate would be hot, the latitude of Lhassa being given as practically the same (if anything slightly south) as that of Cairo.

The conduct of the Nazarite was virtuous in a two-fold sense.
