The Lemur of Madagascar is an endemic animal, that is, it is not found anywhere else, and is part of Africa’s exceptional biodiversity heritage.
Poverty drives the inhabitants of Madagascar to practice deforestation and poaching, thus putting the survival of the Lemur at risk. There are about 100 species currently living (a third of them are already in “critical danger”).
The Linden belongs to the Tiliaceae family and can be found both in its “wild” version (Tilia Cordata) and as an ornamental tree (Tilia Platyphyllos and Tilia americana), which is commonly found in parks, gardens, avenues and hilly terrain.

It has a long lifespan, lasting on average over 250 years, but there are many even older specimens. It is commonly found in dry and humid forests, reaching altitudes of up to 1,500 metres.
