Vance: Tribe Mozingo won't be coming to Lemurcon this year. Chuck had open heart surgery in september and is still recovering. thanks for all you have done...
OK, here is the officially unofficial schedule for this weekend's Lemurcon. You'll notice that a lot of the times are, shall we say, "flexible." I'll try to...
I've now got my photographs up at <http://www.nyx.net/~vkochend/lemurcon/2004/photos.html>. If you're interested in t-shirts and the like, they're still...
In a message dated 10/17/2004 11:20:11 PM Eastern Standard Time, ... Oooo great pictures! Once again, family things and just an overall general lack of...
... Thanks. Yes, Brandon has certainly gotten big. I hope you're able to make it next year. Unfortunately, a series of problems prevented the NYC contingent...
Hi, all...I was just curious if anyone here has an aquarium and keeps any Madagascar cichlids (or any other tropical fish from Madagascar?) I recently got my...
We just set up a tank at the Center with Malagasy Rainbow cichlids. They are pretty easy to care for. I would love to take a look at the site about the...
Did anyone hear the quote on the WB show "Jack and Bobby" last night? The quote was "You have a job that can be accomplished by a lemur." I thought it was...
I didn't watch the show but the tone sounds like it is was indeed meant as a derogatory remark. Have mercy on those ignoramuses. They know now what they say. ...
Ringtails exist in an orderly society, care for their young and family, mourn their dead, live in balance with their environment and settle territorial...
Well, I posted this because I was amused (note the smiley emoticon in my message) they used "lemur"--how often does one hear "lemur" in a fictional context on...
... I'm no expert, but I think you may be idealizing lemur behavior a wee bit. Ask any primatologist about competition within and between groups. ... ...
... I took the minute to register and then tried to view the cams but got a server error each time I clicked on one of the links. The popups are weird; not...
... Vance, three letters: PBS :-) Did anyone happen to catch the Kratts yesterday on tv? I heard the Oxygen channel is supposed to re-run the show. After the...
i care for 2 Coquerel's Sifaka and 2 blue-eyed lemurs and i feel very priviledged to do so. however, from personal experience i must say there is some merit to...
Which browser are you using? I'm getting a website timed out error. Maybe too many users. (I tried Firefox and IE. I see what you mean in IE.) --Yvonne...
i suppose i was a bit hard on us humans, who have much good to offer the world (most of which is indeed on cable). i suppose also that if it served the...
I hate to disagree, but working with ring-tailed I've seen a number of battles, violent, wound causing battles. Sometimes over females, sometimes infanticide,...
remarkable. i've never heard of such behavior, though it is impossible to dispute direct observations. i really have to get down to duke primate center for...
I have two black and white ruffed lemurs and am going to start training them. I was wondering if anyone knew of a good treat for them? The healthier the...
Ask the folks at DUPC (Duke University Primate Center) I saw all kinds of snacks there when I was there. I think they even had some "Lemur Chow" made up. In...
The ones at Zoo Atlanta seem to like sweet potatoes/carrots which can be cut into small bites. We also have leaf-eater biscuits (soy protein biscuits with...
Hi Randi, We train the lemurs at Zoo Atlanta with raisins and grapes. The raisins are small enough to not take too long to eat, and grapes can be tiny, or can...
Thank you all for all the suggestions but I have one question. I was told that our lemurs love grapes and raisins too, but that they weren't really suppose to...
Hi Randy, High iron content in grapes: Below some literature about problems with too much iron in the food, in Lemurs and some general information. Not very...
Randi, High iron in what? Raisins? I wouldn't give them 1/4 cup of raisins, but assuming you are doing a 5-10 minute training session, with one raisin per...
Hi Group, We also use raisins as a training only item for our ruffs, blue- eyeds, ring-tails and occasionally sifaka. Excluding the sifaka, the lemurs all...
Dear Mandy et al, I would be very interested in seeing the research done by your nutritionist. Of course I do not know exactly what diet she is suggesting, so...
