Everyone knows the foods are really wonderful because they're all homemade. You can't buy anything like it in the stores.

They were looking for a Harvard government major to be a lobbyist for the state of Massachusetts. That was the first and best job I ever had.
baby dad nice
Lemurs are good parents but they do it in different ways. I originally studied father care. I was very interested in that and we saw that a lot of these animals that lived in pairs and the father wasn't doing anything at all for the first month. But then suddenly, when the baby got to be a certain weight then the dads chipped in and started carrying the babies which was very nice. And then if there was twins or triplets then they helped.
mother baby dad
The black and white lemur, the one that relaxes on that branch, they actually have day care, like kindergartens; where all the mothers come together and they put all the babies into this one nest and they let dad watch it while they go out and have food and have a good time and then they come back in a few hours. We've never seen that in other primates.
