Description:
The Indri is one of the largest lemurs in Madagascar, known for its piercing call that echoes through the forest. With its thick fur and long arms, it primarily inhabits the tropical forests of eastern Madagascar. The Indri feeds mainly on leaves, fruits, and flowers, and remains loyal to a small territory which it defends with its songs. Due to deforestation and poaching, the Indri is critically endangered.

Recommended lens:
>=400 mm

Photography tips:
Photograph the Indri using a telephoto lens to capture its graceful movements in the trees. It is best to photograph early in the morning or late in the afternoon when the light is soft and the Indri is more active. Be discreet, as the Indri is a shy animal and easily disturbed by human presence. Use natural lighting to avoid harsh shadows and capture the details of its fur.
