Description

When: September 3, 2020

Where: Natura ARTIS Magistra Amsterdam, The Netherlands


The zoo turns night and day around, so it's dark during the day and you can see these nocturnal creatures in their element. If you're lucky and visit early in the morning and rush your way to their enclosure, you can just catch them with decent lighting for 15 minutes or so.

We hoped to witness it, watch them just be in good lighting, but of course they refused to budge from their nesting boxes


Species: Gray Mouse Lemur (Dwergmuismaki)

Latin name: Microcebus Murinus

Originates from Madagascar.

Current status: Least Concern

 Did you know: 

…The Gray Mouse Lemur is the very same Malagasy small primate we named ourselves for, here on DeviantART.
