DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis is an adaptation of the famous folktale, "Three Little Pigs". It takes place on the island of Madagascar, and the "pigs" are not pigs at all, they're LEMURS! (pronounced Lee-Murz). The purpose of this book is to create awareness about lemurs; in particular the ring-tailed lemur, their habitat, and the dangers that are threatening them. Although this is a lighthearted story about three little lemurs stopping a big bad fire, the fun enlightens the reader to a much more serious concern, that is, the destruction of the lemurs' habitats in Madagascar. Geographically, Madagascar's location means that many of the species there are unique to those 226,658 square miles on which they live, and once they are gone that part of our evolutionary past is destroyed.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKSome primate field studies have been on-going for decades, covering significant portions of individual life cycles or even multiple generations. In this volume, leading field workers report on the history and infrastructure of their projects in Madagascar, Africa, Asia and South America. More importantly, they provide summaries of their long-term research efforts on primate behaviour, ecology and life history, highlighting insights that were only possible because of the long-term nature of the study. The chapters of this volume collectively outline the many scientific reasons for studying primate behaviour, ecology and demography over multiple generations. This kind of research is typically necessitated by the relatively slow life histories of primates. Moreover, a complete understanding of social organization and behaviour, factors often influenced by rare but important events, requires long-term data collection. Finally, long-term field projects are also becoming increasingly important foci of local conservation activities.
