All the World's Lemurs, Lorises, Bushbabies, and Pottos is the first volume in the All the World's Primates ebook series. Developed for students, researchers, and anyone interested in primates, this authoritative book illustrates the diversity of the fascinating suborder Strepsirhini, which contains many of our oddest, rarest, most beautiful, and least-known primate relatives. Contributors to this book include more than 100 photographers and primatologists, often the world's experts on the species they describe. This portable resource covers all the lemurs of Madagascar, the lorises of Asia, and the bushbabies (galagos) and pottos of Africa and can help you learn about them at home or during your travels to their habitat. Each primate family has an introduction with general information about the family, followed by profiles of its species. Every species profile includes a color photograph or illustration, a color range map, and information on the species' taxonomy, distinguishing characteristics, physical characteristics, locomotion, diet, life history, social organization, behavior, habitat, IUCN conservation status, and threats the species faces in its natural habitat.
