## Resource

How did these tree-hopping furry angels evolve to be the cutest thing in the world, objectively speaking? They have saucer eyes, wet noses, chunky tails, toe claws, matriarchies, a feature film starring role, and all the mystery of 100 species spending millions of years on a remote island. Wildlife ecologist and official Lemurologist Dr. Lydia Greene joins me to bust flim-flam straight out of the gate and talk about Madagascar, mouse lemurs, evolutionary biology, striped tails, treetop duets, hibernation, and so much more. If you thought you liked lemurs, just wait until you’re obsessed with them.
