Red-fronted brown lemur at Kirindy Forest

Kirindy Forest, a dry deciduous reserve in Madagascar's Menabe region, offers a striking arid backdrop of baobabs & thorny scrub for photographing red-fronted brown lemurs. This exceptional density of nocturnal wildlife shares the forest with the likes of fossa & narrow-striped mongoose, making patient, quiet observation especially rewarding here. Visiting on the Madagascar Wildlife & Rainforest holiday in November, photographers can expect good opportunities to capture these lemurs against the reserve's distinctive, sun-baked landscape.
