Silky Sifakas - Trouble in Lemur Land Documentary...

Now only estimated at 300 left in the wild, Silky Sifaka lemurs are pretty near the most endangered mammal species in the world. Isolated from the rest of the world on the biologically fascinating Madagascar, they have reached crisis status due to the illegal logging of Madagascan hardwood, and in particular the wide scale loss of Rosewood.

Primatologist Erik Patel has been researching and studying the Silky Safaka for over ten years, and has uncovered numerous harrowing discoveries about the destruction of their natural habitat, in some cases risking his life to bring this information to the public domain. Please spread the word of the cause, and you can find more information in regards to the work of Erik Patel and SIMPONA in this small region of North-Eastern Madagasca HERE.

"Huge risks were taken to get this logging footage. This is a dangerous topic to investigate, but we had to take a stand"  - Erik Patel, Primatologist
