Black-Hooded Lemur

The black-hooded lemur, also known as the common lemur, is a very common species of lemur that is native to much of Madagascar. It belongs to Lemuridae, one of five lemur families, and is the only member of the Psudolemur genus. It is most closely related to the endangered similar-sized red-ruffed lemur, and it is named due to dark colorations that cover their backs and tops of their heads, giving them the colorations of a hood.
