      I didn't know that Blue-eyed black lemurs were rare, as the LA zoo has always had them. I always thought that they were just another species of lemur.
    • snowleopard
      I've only seen them perhaps 3 times in my life, and they are much less common than ring-tails or red ruffed lemurs. On a side note, I think that the blue-eyed black lemurs are the only primates besides humans that have blue eyes.
