Help us name the little Lemur pups!

Monarto Safari Park’s Ring-tailed Lemur troop have welcomed five adorable new additions to the troop!

A little while ago Spindles, Lulu and Clementine each had a pup. Blossom even gave birth to twins!

Now they’re old enough to leap through the trees it’s time to give them the paw-fect names.

Our keepers have chosen a bunch of names for each pup in Malagasy, but we need your help choosing.

Ring-tailed Lemurs are listed as endangered by the IUCN Red List, making the arrival of these pups all the more important. Research suggests the wild population in Madagascar could be as little as 2,000 to 2,500, with habitat loss and poaching the biggest threats.

Vote on names for our lemur pups and you’ll go in the running to win a double pass to our Land of the Lemurs experience to meet the troop!
