- @Launchballer: I adjusted a few short phases that were getting picked up. everything else seems to just be direct quotes or names of organizations that it is catching.--Found5dollar (talk) 17:01, 17 May 2024 (UTC)
Ring-tailed monkey?
editAre we talking about the ring-tailed lemur? BorgQueen (talk) 17:40, 23 May 2024 (UTC)
- @BorgQueen: all the cites call it a "ring-tailed monkey." I would assume that is a ring-tailed lemur but the cites use the term "monkey" not "lemur" so I kept it what the citations say. Found5dollar (talk) 17:59, 23 May 2024 (UTC)
