狐猴是马达加斯加的“三宝”之一，据说有近50种不同的狐猴分布在马达加斯加的丛林中。由于狐猴体态较小，又喜欢在丛林中游荡、跳跃，所以，也有人把狐猴叫做“马达加斯加的幽灵”。

马达加斯加岛与世隔绝,和没有大型的食肉动物的环境，使得狐猴能够在这个岛屿上生存下来。但狐猴是排在《世界濒危动物名录》第一位的野生动物,已经被认为是最大的濒危种群之一，乱砍滥伐是导致狐猴赖以生存的空间减少了90%，人类是它们最大的天敌。

身材较小、大眼睛、长尾巴是狐猴的总体特点，而且性情温顺，喜欢吃树叶和树上的花。但由于分布的环境不同，它们的习性还是有一些区别。

这组狐猴的图片是我2007年9月在马达加斯加岛旅游期间，在安达西贝、贝卢、贝拉马、穆龙贝、图利亚、伊萨鲁、菲娅那错等地拍摄的。
