Lemurs of Madagascar

Lemuridae

A small and fragile link to a world that needs protecting.

A Living Connection to Madagascar's Forests

Lemurs live only in Madagascar. They've evolved there in isolation over millions of years. But today, their forest homes are disappearing.

At La Vanille Nature Park, lemurs live in spaces designed to feel natural. We focus on keeping them happy and healthy with good food, fun activities, and regular care. This helps them stay active, social, and balanced.

When you visit, you'll see them up close. And you'll understand why protecting them matters.

How We Care for Them and Why It Matters

Lemurs at La Vanille are supported through carefully managed environments that prioritise both physical health and behavioural stability. Daily care includes monitored nutrition, enrichment cycles, veterinary oversight, and habitat maintenance aligned with recognised welfare standards.

But we don't just take care of them. We want you to understand them. These lemurs show us what's being lost when forests disappear and why we need to act now.
