Researchers in Senegal have observed chimpanzees fashioning crude spears out of tree branches and jabbing those spears into tree-branch hollows where bush babies small, noctural primates known by the more scientific name of "galagos" sleep during the day.

Darwinius and Afradapis were even fairly distant from the ancestors of living lemurs, lorises, and galagos, meaning that they represented a group of specialized adapids that died out and have no living descendants.

Strepsirrhines included lemurs, galagos, and a few other species, which all share certain traits, such as a wet nose (the root of the name strepsirrhine).

Other strepsirrhine primates also seem to slow their leaps by spreading their arms and using skin membranes, including galagos (Charles-Dominique 1977).

Some workers have done this: Charles-Dominique (1977) likened the skin membranes of galagos to incipient patagia, and Feduccia (1993) used the term patagium in connection with sifakas.

There are also two endemic species of galagos (out of a total of four occurring in the hotspot): the Rondo dwarf galago (Galagoides rondoensis) in the southern Tanzanian forests, the Kenya coast galago (G. cocos) from northern Tanzania and into Kenya.

As one of my main contributions, I have focused the past 40 years on maintaining the diversity of our closest living relatives, the nonhuman primates - the apes, monkeys, lemurs, lorises, galagos, and tarsiers that make up the mammalian Order of which we are a part.
