Lemurs' Park, Nature reserve and botanical garden in Imerintsiatosika, Madagascar
Lemurs' Park is a nature reserve and botanical garden where several lemur species live in conditions close to their natural habitat. The grounds feature Madagascar's native vegetation and space for the animals to roam freely among the plants.
The park was established around 2000 as a place for animals that had been kept as pets to prepare for life in the wild. The project aimed to protect these animals while also helping people understand lemur conservation.
The park offers people from the capital a chance to encounter Madagascar's native wildlife up close. Visitors learn about lemur behavior and conservation efforts through guided experiences throughout the grounds.
The grounds are accessible with marked paths where visitors can safely watch and photograph the different lemur species. Guided tours with knowledgeable interpreters are available, and there is a place to eat and rest on the property.
The animals are fed on a set schedule throughout the day, giving visitors predictable times to watch and photograph them. These regular feeding times make it easier to observe the animals and understand their behaviors.
