These lemurs spend more time on the ground than other lemurs and hold their tails up in the air as they walk to keep track of their troop. Troops can be composed of up to 25 members and are led by a dominant female. Ring-tailed lemurs are highly social animals and help raise the offspring of other members of their troop.
Look no further. Connect with our amazing animals and learn about the wild places they come from.
The Animal Amigo program helps care for all of the animals at the Zoo by funding food, medical treatment, equipment, enrichment toys, and habitat improvement for the animals in our care. For a donation of $100 or more, you can sponsor a lemur at the Indianapolis Zoo. You will receive a plush, collector card, certificate and recognition on the Animal Amigo donor board!
