This article from Lemur News presents evidence of twinning in Coquerel's sifaka lemurs in the Anjajavy Reserve in Madagascar. While sifakas typically only have single infants, the authors observed a group with twin infants, which is rare for this species. The researchers followed the group closely and observed the twins nursing from the same female and exploring their environment. This suggests that twinning in sifakas may be more common than previously believed. The article also discusses the researchers' reflections on their work, acknowledging their cultural biases and questioning the impact and relevance of their research in the local community. They emphasize the importance of considering the historical and colonial context of environmental issues in Madagascar and engaging in conversations with diverse perspectives.
