Madagascar is an island located in the Indian Ocean inhabited by only creatures whose origin is still unknown. Lemurs are the most representative animals of Madagascar. There is a beautiful legend which speaks of the South Atlantis, the sunken continent of Lemuria. There, there were dense ancient jungles inhabited by beings different from any others ever known; unique creatures which arose in an independent world, isolated from the rest of the continents.
Fifty million years after the peculiar mammals of Australia began their solitary life, the primitive insectivores began diversifying, evolving towards the groups from which would emerge the lemurs, all the monkeys of the world and even man: the primates.
And at this crucial point in the history of evolution, Madagascar began its existence in isolation.
