Yes, humans hunt ruffed lemurs for food, and the fossa may kill any that stray from the very tops of the trees.
The temperature range for lemurs depends on the species. The ring-tailed lemur has been observed in mountainous regions that drop several degrees below 0° C (32° F), but also live in some of the hottest parts of the island (the spiny forests). Other lemurs, such as the ruffed lemurs, live in the rainforests where it is warmer year-round.
Yes they are endangered due to the treat pressed on her habitat.
There are no exact figures for this species, and the population appears to be in decline.
