Small-eared Greater Galago

Otolemur garnettii

A cat-sized nocturnal primate with huge eyes and a bushy tail. It leaps between trees after dark, hunting insects and taking fruit and gum, and its loud, wailing calls give bushbabies their name. Torchlight catches its eyes as bright orange points.

Did you know?

Galagos can leap more than two metres between branches and land silently.
