WE live on a small holding (20 000sqm) in Pretoria, South Africa. We are completely surounded by suburban development, but are very fortunate to have a breading pair on our property. The have delivered as many as 50 babies over the last few years. We do not feed them at all. They are very tamed but always maintain a save distance. It is a beautiful experience and a honour to have these amazing creatures roaming in our garden. I just wanted to share with you!!! You, and your team are the best!!

I am a student of Prof. SK Bearder and study bushbabies in Tanzania. I was writing to ask what you feed young otolemur like the one above. Friends have been given 2 'rescued' ones with head-body length of 10cm, so 3-4 weeks old I guess. They are taking banana. I was wondering what milk or vitamin suplements they need. Can you feed them things like grasshopers this young. I know they like gum, fruit, small reptiles and insects in the wild. As I only study them in the wild, I never keep them captive but friends always ask me how to keep them. Any advice is welcome. Andrew Hi,

I am happy to see JACK expand their care to these precious creatures. I will never understand why humans will not leave wild animals where they belong. So many species becoming endangered due to human apathy. I am pleased that plans are in the works for these bush babies to be released back into the wild. I wish JACK the best of luck with the new program and research. Great news Roxane! I am happy to see JACK expand their care to these precious creatures.
