	DLC: Animals: Lesser Bushbaby
		Lesser bushbabies locomote mainly by vertical clinging and leaping.
		Bushbabies, or galagos, are small, nocturnal primates which range in size from cat-sized to mouse sized.
		Some bushbabies, including the lesser bushbaby, are vertical clingers and leapers, springing up to 15 feet in a single bound as they travel through the forest from vertical support to vertical support.

	Serengeti - Smaller Night Animals
		Bushbabies in Serengeti live in the Grumeti Riverine Forests, the Seronera River Acacia Thickets, and along the streams in the south-west, near Moru Ranger Post.
		Bushbabies live in loose troops of animals which are ruled by a dominant female (matriarch).
		Bushbabies have glands in their skin which produce a musky scent which is taken up by the fur.

	Fossil teeth reveal oldest bushbabies, lorises
		The tiny fossils offer evidence that the ancestors of bushbabies and lorises appeared during the Eocene epoch that lasted from 55 million to 34 million years ago -- at least twice as early as previous fossils had shown.
		Bushbabies, which range from the size of chipmunks to opossums, are nocturnal leaping animals that now live in sub-Saharan Africa, while lorises are more gangly and slow-moving and are found in the forests of central Africa and south Asia.
		A major distinguishing tooth among the finds, said Seiffert, is one tiny canine belonging to Karanisia that formed part of a “toothcomb,” used by the animals to groom one another.

	Bushbaby SOS
		The bushbaby has huge big orange/red eyes, SO big they cannot move their eyes in the sockets so they have to move their heads like an owl.
		Bushbabies go their separate ways for a "midnight feast" of insects and Acacia gum.
		So Changa the bushbaby rested in a tree where he could watch the path, and Nsulu the shrew bounded off as fast as his little legs could carry him to find an ember of fire.

	Bushbaby - Lesser
		Lesser bushbabies are more lively than the thick-tailed bushbaby, and also spend relatively more time in trees.
		When a group of lesser bushbabies share a nest, they lie at all angles, some upside down, in comfort, their ears folded back, forefeet covering the head and tail curling over it.
		Lesser bushbabies wet the soles of their feet with urine which helps dominant males to mark out their territory.

	Family Galagonidae or bushbabies and galagos
		Bushbabies are small african primates, whose general scientific name is "Galago".
		Bushbabies are found throughout forests in South Africa and are likely able to survive due to their small size and nocturnal schedule.
		Bushbabies are generally small animals with most species ranging from 100 to 200g body weight.

		The Lesser Bushbaby is a cute little primate that is, sadly, losing its habitat in the wild.
		Male Lesser Bushbabies are normally territorial, scent marking a home range that overlaps that of between one and five female Bushbabies.
		Native to regions of central southern Africa, Lesser Bushbabies are found along the edges of forests, and in savannas.

	Geological Society - News - Falling out of the tree (Site not responding. Last check: )
		The new fossil evidence supports a novel proposal that lemurs, lorises and bushbabies, which comprise a sister group to higher primates, might have originated in Indo-Madagascar rather than in Africa.
		In Karanisia, the teeth at the front of the lower jaw formed a toothcomb like that typically seen in living strepsirrhine primates, which includes bushbabies, lorises and lemurs, as one of their defining characteristics.
		Seiffert and colleagues conclude that the new finds are compatible with the widely accepted view that the lorises and bushbabies (as a group) diverged from lemurs 50 million to 53 million years ago, and that their last common ancestor lived in Afro-Arabia.

	BlurtIt: Are bushbabies rodents or marsupials?
		Despite their wide-eyed and startled appearance, bushbabies are not quiet and shy.
		Being tree-dwellers, bushbabies are extremely agile and equipped with long fingers and toes to add climbing.
		While their leaps in the trees are similar to those executed by frogs, on the ground the bushbaby hops on its hindlegs like a mini kangaroos.

	New fossils add to primate-origins debate - Fine Toothcomb Science News - Find Articles
		The 40-million-year-old specimens represent two ancient groups, one an ancestor of modern lorises--complete with a comb-like set of lower front teeth that confirms its identity--and the other, of bushbabies, say anthropologist Erik R. Seiffert of Duke University in Durham, N.C., and his colleagues.
		These new finds double the age of the sparse fossil record for lorises and bushbabies, which with lemurs make up a primate group called the strepsirrhines.
		In his view, lorises and bushbabies took a unique evolutionary route 10 million years later, perhaps when lemurs became isolated on the island of Madagascar after it separated from India.
