What is a "sportive lemur"?

The sportive lemur is a primate species found in Madagascar, known for its nocturnal lifestyle, specialized adaptations for arboreal living, and unique appearance. Sportive lemurs have large, round eyes adapted for low light conditions and a dense fur coat that helps them retain body heat during cooler nights. They have a long, bushy tail that assists with balance and maneuverability in the trees. Sportive lemurs are herbivores, feeding on leaves, flowers, and fruits, and are known for their slow and deliberate movements as they navigate through the forest canopy. They are solitary animals, typically resting during the day in tree hollows or dense foliage and becoming active at night to forage for food.
