Save the Endangered Golden-crowned sifaka

Of all lemurs, the golden-crowned sifaka has one of the most limited distributions. Vast tracts of their habitat have been cleared and the isolated patches of forest that remain are under pressure from and bush fires. The species is also hunted in some areas, and the recent discovery of gold in the region has resulted in an influx of miners, causing further habitat loss and the hunting of lemurs for food. The area they live in is not protected and there are only 10,000 left in the wild and 3 in captivity.
