Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1986, primatologist Patricia Chapple Wright was given a seemingly impossible task: to travel to the rainforests of Madagascar and find the greater bamboo lemur, a species that hadn't been seen in the wild for thirty years. Not only did Wright discover that the primate still existed but that it lived alongside a completely new species. What followed was a love affair with an animal and a country that continues to this day. In this frank and enchanting sequel to High Moon Over the Amazon, Wright recounts the many challenges she faced, including separation from her daughter, a tempestuous romance with a fellow scientist, and political upheaval that threatens her dream of establishing a national park to ensure the safety of her precious lemurs. But in the end, her tenacity, daring, and passion for this endangered primate lead to extraordinary scientific breakthroughs and help bring the animal back from the brink of extinction.

Download or read book The Psychological Well Being of Nonhuman Primates written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1998-11-03 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A 1985 amendment to the Animal Welfare Act requires those who keep nonhuman primates to develop and follow appropriate plans for promoting the animals' psychological well-being. The amendment, however, provides few specifics. The Psychological Well-Being of Nonhuman Primates recommends practical approaches to meeting those requirements. It focuses on what is known about the psychological needs of primates and makes suggestions for assessing and promoting their well-being. This volume examines the elements of an effective care programâ€"social companionship, opportunities for species-typical activity, housing and sanitation, and daily care routinesâ€"and provides a helpful checklist for designing a plan for promoting psychological well-being. The book provides a wealth of specific and useful information about the psychological attributes and needs of the most widely used and exhibited nonhuman primates. Readable and well-organized, it will be welcomed by animal care and use committees, facilities administrators, enforcement inspectors, animal advocates, researchers, veterinarians, and caretakers.

Everyone knows that once a lemur takes a fancy to you there is not much that can be done about it. While being followed by lemurs one day, a boy tries hiding up a tree (without luck), disguising himself (without success) and even tries to sail off in a boat to get away from them – only to discover the lemurs snorkeling behind him. Eventually,after climbing mountains, taking trains and going through the air in a balloon, he finally thinks that he has lost them. Or has he? In the process, he has managed to get himself lost, and it is only then that he realizes that the cunning lemurs might just be helpful after all...

This book was released on 2020-11-24 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Story of Lemurs We shall look at the lemurs of Madagascar to help us learn more about the importance of the Golden Rule. Lemurs are small primates, like monkeys but smaller, and have many characteristics like human beings. The name lemur means roving spirit, which is akin to the animal's character of roving the forests from tree to tree in full happiness.These gorgeous animals are found only on the island of Madagascar, which is located on the southeastern side of Africa. The only other place one can see lemurs is at the zoo. Like human beings that are of many races, lemurs come in many different species. Similarly, they live in extended families, just like humans live with their family. Below, we explore several ways that lemurs can help us learn and apply the Golden Rule in our day-to-day lives.
