I had to visit the Lemur Center today to check on some stuff for their expansion. I saw their signs that mentioned they give tours by appointment. Has anyone ever checked it out?

After walking around the site, I think it would be a cool thing to do for a date or on a weekend. Just give them about 5 weeks for them to finish their construction.

went with my Biology class at state a few years ago



had a pretty good time, Lemurs are fun to watch I guess. They also allegedly have some pretty rare ones.

It does cost money, I think it's $5-6 for students. Lots of fun and very interesting.

All lemurs are relatively rare.

i had a pretty good time a few years back. they put some stuff in the log for the aye-aye (the one with the really long finger) and he fished it out. it was pretty cool.
