Ring–tailed lemurs are unique because of their appearance and their social activity. First, ring–tailed lemurs are just one of o
ver 100 different species of lemur, but they are easily recognizable because of their long, black and white ringed tails and shocking stare. They are small, weighing only 5 to 8 pounds, but their large eyes and intense stare contribute to their name, which means "ghost" in Latin. They congregate in groups called troops of about 17 animals. Each troop is presided over by a dominant, large female ring–tailed lemur. Also, ring–tailed lemurs have glands in their wrists that can release a strong odor into the air to repel predators and also to fight with one another. The male ring–tails will "stink fight" with one another by releasing their odors until one slinks away.
