A cuddly new species of lemur has been discovered on the island of Madagascar – the biodiversity hotspot where 90% of its wildlife is found nowhere else on Earth.
The tiny primate measures around 17cm-long with a 28cm-thick, furry tail. Like many of its lemur relatives, it has large, dark, round eyes; small dextrous hands with opposable thumbs for climbing and fruit-picking; alongside small-rounded ears.
