Ring-tailed lemurs sit in the treetops, staring at the visitors who are exclaiming outside, but then leap down from the trees and run to the ground.

They were also brought in from other zoos, and they are used to this creature by visitors.

If you get up close, you may be curious and cautious, but across such a wide water, you don't seem to care much about tourists, and it's no different from being in a natural environment.

The vegetation on the islands is not very dense! There are gaps between the trees, so you can clearly see ring-tailed lemurs jumping and running from island to island.

In the distance, a ring-tailed lemur, like a rabbit, staggered on the ground several times, and deftly jumped onto a rock in the shade of a tree, and walked slowly two steps.

The end of the slender tail hangs down and curls up naturally, making it look like a question mark.

After observing the environment at 60 degrees to the left and right of his head, he jumped onto the tamarind tree again, and a mass of leaves suddenly rustled and shook obviously.

Su Hui said in surprise: "Hey, did you see it, when it was walking just now!" ”

"What?"

"When they walk, their tails look like question marks! Look, there's another one over there! ”

Yan Ganghui observed carefully, and his spirits perked: "Hey, it's true!" Interesting! ”

Looking at the ring-tailed lemur's tail rolled into a question mark and wagging it, I don't know why, a string of question marks sent by his teammates came to his mind when he played Yasuo in League of Legends......

？？？？？？

And a lyric sounded in Su Hui's mind, and a childish child's voice sang suspiciously: "Children, do you have a lot of question marks......

There is a half-meter-high wooden fence on the edge of the island!

The height of the guardrail is so low, mainly to not affect the effect of enjoying the exhibition area, and to play a slight blocking role.

Because the water depth is only two meters, falling down is actually not in the way, and children can not fall down if they have guardrails.

On the side of the guardrail, there are several popular science signs with sloping surfaces erected at a distance.

Yan Ganghui and Su Hui walked here, and just saw a popular science display board introducing the tail of the ring-tailed lemur.

It is accompanied by a picture of two ring-tailed lemurs with huge question mark tails: "The beautiful long black and white tails of ring-tailed lemurs have 13-14 ring-like patterns, which is where their name comes from."

They have a body length of about 30-45 cm and a tail length of 40-50cm, and the tail length is equal to or even more than the body length! ”

Yan Ganghui scratched his head, his eyes were a little incredible: "Surprised, the tail is longer than the body?" ”

On the right side of the popular science exhibition board, there is a diary-like device, with an iron ring on the top, and the pages are also thin iron pages, which look like they can be opened from the bottom to the top.

The cover reads a question: "Do you know what the tail of a ring-tailed lemur does?" ”

Turn the page up and you'll see the answer!

This interactive question-and-answer device does not directly tell the answer, but can give visitors the space to think for themselves.

In this way, visitors can leave a deeper impression after watching it!

Su Hui guessed: "It should be balancing the body, right?" ”

If an animal's tail is so long, it must not be a burden!

Yan Ganghui said: "I guess too! ”

So the two of them put their heads together and curiously turned the next page.

A: Keep your balance

The picture on this page shows a ring-tailed lemur walking steadily on a thick rope.

"A long tail that plays a role in maintaining balance when exercising!"

But when you turn the page, there are obviously several more pages below, and the annotation of A also shows that this is only one of the functions of the tail.

What other features? The two looked at each other, a little unable to think of it.

B: Keep in touch

The accompanying picture shows a group of ring-tailed lemurs looking out between the trees, cocking their tails.

It looks like a flag with black and white stripes, which is very eye-catching!

"The ring-tailed lemur often has a ring-tailed tail that is very prominent, even from a distance. This is a signal that they keep in touch with each other as they roam through the grass or trees. ”

C: Gives off a special odor

In this picture, two ring-tailed lemurs raise their tails above their backs and wave at each other, as if they are fencing, their eyes full of provocation.

Sharp swords, sharp eyes!

I crave worthy opponents!

"The ring-tailed lemur's tail also emits a scent in the air, and the smell is like a person's fingerprint, marking their own identity information, showing the individual's status in the group, so the ring-tailed lemur with a broken tail will be in a very disadvantageous state in the group."

After flipping through the exhibition cards, the two of them were amazed: "There are so many functions, and the tail can also emit a scent." ”

"It seems that the tail is still quite important to the ring-tailed lemur!"

Continue to move in the direction of the ring-tailed lemurs running and jumping, towards the east side of the island.

I saw that there are a lot of ring-tailed lemurs basking in the sun here!

The sun floats in the east like a light orange, the crisp golden glow of the morning spreads on the pale gray sand, and the open water shimmers with golden light.

Some of the wurm trees are green like slender palms, bending and sticking out many branches, and some grow straight to the sky, but the trunks are slightly crooked, and the tamarind trees are lush and stretched, casting some mottled leaf shadows on the ground.

Ring-tailed lemurs bask in the sun in groups of three or five, either on the beach, with their backs to the rocks, or sitting on tree trunks, exposing their white fur chest and abdomen.

A ring-tailed lemur sits on the trunk of a tree in a very heroic posture, with its hands on both sides of its body, basking in the sun, and its head is constantly rotating in a very large arc up and down, left and right, as if doing some kind of aerobics.

The neck is twisted and the butt is twisted, let's do exercise together~

There are also a few ring-tailed lemurs, sitting on tree trunks with their hands raised high, looking left and right while basking in the sun, and occasionally kicking their legs, bowing their heads and licking their fur, like students who are distracted and deserted in class.

On the beach, two ring-tailed lemurs are meditating close to each other, their eyes closed, and their heads tilted slowly in each other's direction, as if they want to sleep because of the warm sun!

The lemur on the right, with its body shaking slightly, opened a small slit in its eyes, glanced outside, and quickly closed it again, while the lemur on the left, with its head completely tilted, suddenly straightened its head, and its orange-red eyes opened vigilantly and looked ahead.

Wu Zetian was in the middle of the beach, meditating cross-legged in the most conspicuous position, his posture was extremely standard, basking in the sun motionlessly, and his eyes were always open.

It's like a solemn and solemn ceremony, with a serious attitude, setting an example for other ring-tailed lemurs basking in the sun.
