Saving Lemurs in the Wild
You are saving lemurs in the wild by visiting Houston Zoo. In recent years, the Zoo provided support for educational materials for children living around wild lemur homes in Madagascar. Our Malagasy conservation partners educate local children about the importance of wildlife like lemurs and the children influence their family to protect animals.
