A newly formed protected park in Madagascar has been created. The park stretches over 1,438 square miles (372,470 hectares) of rainforest in northeastern Madagascar and contains 20 of the island’s 103 lemur species, including the red-ruffed lemur and the silky sifaka. This is Madagascar's largest protected area. Madagascar Gets Biggest Lemur Park | LiveScience
