Best Answer

First of all, the aye-aye is not a monkey. It is a lemur, a different type of primate.

The diet of the aye-aye consists mostly of the seeds of ramy (Canarium spp.) and other plants, but also beetle and moth larvae found under the bark of trees, cankerous growths on plants, nectar, and various crops, such as coconuts, lychees, and mangos.

Being a type of lemur, it feeds on larvae, other small animals, eggs, and fruit, as well as on bamboo and sugarcane.
