What does the word aye mean in Rutter's Nativity Carol As in Christ was born for Aye?
Usually in older English texts, "for aye" would mean "forever" or "always." That doesn't quite work here, and since the text is by Rutter, I'm guessing that the words are inserted for rhythm and rhyming purposes. It would probably be close enough to say that it means "for certain."
What temperature range is needed for lemurs to survive?
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.

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.
