Mort is a mouse lemur, native to Madagascar. However, the 16 or more mouse lemur species themselves are nearly indistinguishable visually. They are considered to be cryptic species. Therefore, unless DreamWorks Animation formally states that Mort was based on a specific species, we have to assume that this fictional, cartoonish character is simply based off of a general mouse lemur.
Internet rumor, likely started on someone's blog, contends that Mort is a Goodman's Mouse Lemur, noting similarities in appearance based off images on the web. However, there is nothing else to support this, and given that mouse lemurs are visually indistinguishable, this rumor is false. Regardless, it has spread around the web and is now considered by many fans to be the truth. (Repetition alone apparently has the power to make Internet rumor into "Internet fact.") However, the strongest case against this claim (crypsis aside) is that the movie "Madagascar" was released in theaters on May 27, 2005, whereas the discovery of the Goodman's Mouse Lemur was reported in August 2005.

How long is the gestation period of a ring tailed lemur?

What is causing the extinction of the Crowned Lemur?
Political upheaval in Madagascar is mostly to blame for the Crowned Lemur being classified as a vulnerable species.
Since the breakdown and fall of the Madagascan government in March 2001, Madagascar has been suspended from the African Union which has led to the withdrawal of international support which conserves and protects the forests and animals on the island country.
This has led to a huge boom in environmental crimes such as illegal logging, illegal charcoal production, unlicensed sapphire mining, illegal capture of wild animals for pet trades and illegal poaching.
In 2009 political power in formerly- democratic Madagascar was overtaken by the Madagascan military, which is recognised as a military coup, making environmental matters worse and making conservation efforts even more difficult.
The Crowned Lemur is currently being illegally poached and sold as a delicacy in restaurants around Madagascar. The illegal logging activities in Madagascar also mean that the Crowned Lemur's habitat is getting smaller and smaller, which will cause complications in breeding seasons and difficulty escaping from predators, including humans.
Although some arrests have been made in regards to illegal poaching of protected species, the penalties for these criminals in Madagascar are lenient.

Why do Aye Ayes tap on the trees?

What reason is there to stay alive?
Because thing might seem better tomorrow? God put you on earth for a reason .To purposefully take your (or any one else's for that matter) life is to spit in God's face and to take a miracle off this earth. You would not want to do that. Plus, as previously said, God put you here for a reason. That reason is yet to come and unfold in the story of your life. Stick around to watch. When God put us on this earth, He said that He would always be with us not that the road of life would be easy. You can't let bumps or blockades in the road stop you from living.
And ALWAYS REMEMBER the CREATOR OF THE UNIVERSE AND EVERYTHING IN IT LOVES YOU!!!! John 3:16 ---that in itself is enough to keep me going.
He loves YOU and me so much that he gave his ONE AND ONLY son's life to save us!!
In adding to the above contributor, because you were designed to live. Most people are unaware of how we affect others around us, either in a positive or negative way. Its like dropping a pebble into a pond. It creates a ripple and that ripple fans out and affects the whole pond in one way or another. So to, we effect others. Your job is to affect others in a positive way. In this you will find reasons to live and find joy and peace in doing so.
== All the possibilities. There is so much to live for - get involved with social activities, do things you have always wanted to do, spend time with people you know or meet new people, look towards the future with a positive outlook, move to a new place if you don't like where you are and nothing is holding you back you can reinvent yourself, the trees, flowers, animals, mountains, lakes, rivers, smells, waterfalls, fresh cut grass, a good meal, to be able to feel - the possibilities are more alive than the ones that are not there if you are not here. I remember when I tried to commit suicide, I just absolutely could not stand butterfly-and-rainbow answers to questions like this. I guess it wound up being fairly plain and simple to me, in the end - who knows what reason you could have to live? The only person who could figure it out is you. Trouble is... it's sort of hard to do that when you're dead. So, really, staying alive is cool because not only do you sometimes figure out what sucks, but you also get to find out what makes you happy, and how to avoid reliving what sucked. Why to stay alive? I've asked that question. You will find the answer, you really can't be told the answer. There are some hints though. You might be keeping somebody else alive by just being there. And don't assume that people don't care about you. There is ALWAYS somebody that cares. Listen to 'Hold On' by Good Charlotte and watch the music video, it helps. Love. To love and to be loved. Everyone has someone waiting for them out there, even if you haven't met them yet. Live for happiness, and the day when you can look back and be so proud of yourself for coming so far. You may not realise it now, but you have no idea how much suicide can affect all the people that knew the person. If you don't like your life the way it is at the moment - change it. Go out and look for your reason, everyone's different, don't just sit around asking other people and waiting for life to find you. I've lived with depression for a year now.
