Tsingy de Namoroka National Park

Located in central-western Madagascar, the Tsingy de Namoroka is one of the three protected areas in Madagascar featuring the unusual karst formations known as tsingys. Lemur species known to occur here include gray mouse lemur (Microcebus murinus), northern giant mouse lemur (Mirza zaza), fat-tailed dwarf lemur (Cheirogaleus medius), pale fork-marked lemur (Phaner pallescens), northern bamboo lemur (Hapalemur occidentalis), rufous brown lemur (Eulemur rufus), Decken’s sifaka (Propithecus deckenii), and possibly aye-aye (Daubentonia madagascariensis). Although this area is interesting for its tsingys, it is more difficult to reach than the other two, similarly-featured protected areas, and it is not a high priority for lemur-watching.
