For the #SciArtSeptember prompt “simian” I made a new edition to my ongoing series of animals with fabulous collective nouns. It’s A Conspiracy of Lemurs. These ring-tailed lemurs definitely appear to be up to something. Caught in the act of scheming. The word “lemurs” mimics their tails, of course!
The ring-tailed lemur (Lemur catta) is a wet-nosed primate, endemic to Madagascar. 🧵1/n

Ms. FoC sent some new monkey pics from Nepal. One is a cute baby monkey.
The other is the mother of the baby monkey. She is abnormally skinny, so Ms FoC speculates that mamma monkey has a parasite or some other health issue 😢

The monkeys have a right to live especially when they have been there for hundreds of years and are not disturbing anyone or anything. #Primates #Primatology #Monkeys #StMaarten

Happy World Orangutan Day!
I could rave about these amazing primates all day. They're just awesome animals and we must save them from extinction.

The front cover by Claire Terhune shows a tufted capuchin feeding on monkey chow. Laird & co discovered that the primates' bite forces and gapes increased with body mass and facial width across ontogeny and suggest that that juveniles must compensate for their reduced bite force in order to consume the same diet as adults

Bornean slow loris (Nycticebus borneanus) in Belait District, #Brunei. Lorisis have a toxic bite, since they lick a toxin from a gland by their elbow that is activated when mixed with saliva. Photo: Joremy Tony #Borneo #wildlife #primates #vulnerablespecies
