Live from the Lemur Forest

Description

Live from the Lemur Forest

Take a virtual field trip into a Natural Habitat Enclosure at the Duke Lemur Center to see lemurs leaping and lounging in the trees. Education programs manager Megan McGrath will introduce you to a new group of lemurs out in the forest, and give you an update on how the lemurs and staff are doing a few months into the pandemic. If the unpredictable NC weather doesn’t cooperate, Megan will use pre-recorded footage for a substitute, so you can still attend this virtual field trip – rain or shine!
