Lemurs are classified as members of the order Primates and the suborder Strepsirrhini, which includes species that give birth to live young. This reproductive characteristic aligns them with other mammals, distinguishing them from egg-laying species. The live birth of young, coupled with their unique evolutionary traits, helps to define their taxonomic group within the broader primate family, emphasizing their evolutionary adaptations to their environments in Madagascar.

How do hairy-eared dwarf lemurs raise their young?
Not much is known about hairy-eared dwarf lemurs. They have not been studied much in the wild. No breeding information appears to be available. However, being a small lemur, it likely gives birth to small litters and builds nests for its young. If so, the young would be stashed away in the nest while the mother forages for food.
