Mowgli, Ring-Tailed Lemur

Mowgli arrived at Black Pine Animal Sanctuary after being confiscated by New Mexico Game and Fish when he was discovered being illegally kept by a private owner.  He did not receive a proper diet, so he was the size of a 6-9 month-old lemur despite being two years old.  Mowgli spent some time at the Albuquerque Zoo until a permanent refuge could be found.  Once quarantined, he received a full medical work-up.  This allowed Black Pine Animal Sanctuary to introduce him to the Primate House immediately upon arrival.  At first, he was overwhelmed by all the animals and sounds but quickly acclimated to his new surroundings.  He loves food, and his diet has been increased to help him gain weight and muscle.

What does Mowgli eat? Produce Mix, Greens, Protein, Commercial Biscuits

What does Mowgli do for fun? He LOVES scented paper and his stuffed animals. He bounces around everywhere so we place plenty of enrichment up high for him to hang on and enjoy. He likes when we hang a stuffy from the ceiling for him to wrestle with!
