Monthly from Madagascar: Madagascar Fauna Group

The monthly newsletter of the Madagascar Fauna Group's in-country projects. The main focus of the update is recent news from Ivoloina Parc Zoologique and Betampona Reserve.

In this issue there is an update on the changing group dynamics of Black-and-White Ruffed Lemurs (Varecia variegata variegata) at Betampona as well as reports on a number of micro-projects running in the reserve. Also reported is the death of the male Aye-Aye (Daubentonia madagascariensis) at Ivoloina, although the cause of death was unknown despite veterinarian Randy Junge being on hand to perform the post-mortem.
