The Lesser Bush baby, known to scientists as Gal ago Molli, is a small, tree-dwelling primate active by night. They are capable of leaps of remarkable distance between trees. At times they may venture on the ground, when they walk either on their hind legs or on all fours. Apart from adult males avoiding confrontation with each other by maintaining individual territories, their social system is similar to that of the Thick-tailed Bush baby. Adults are solitary foragers, but companions do meet at night to interact, and congregate before going to sleep during the day in groups of up to six.

  1. Good day!

    I am Julia Villanueva from De La Salle University Manila in the Philippines, taking up Communication Arts. I am currently working on my thesis which is an environmental magazine. With that, I am asking permission if I can use your photos on bushbabies since the topic will be featured. The magazine is to promote awareness on protecting the environment among tweens.

    Also, is it possible if I can get a high res photo?

    The magazine will not be commercialized, and I will definitely credit it.

    Thank you.

    You may contact me through my email: juliamarie.villanueva@yahoo.com
