Babies on the Brink | BBC

• Coquerel’s sifaka infant is being raised by experts at the Duke Lemur Centre in North Carolina, US.
• Conservationists are also taking a hands-on approach to caring for Madagascar’s unusual aye ayes. Population growth is a slow process for the nocturnal primates because mothers wean their babies for up to a year, so can only care for young every two to three years.

Nature’s Miracle Babies begins on BBC One at 1830 BST this Sunday.

Madagascar has a lot of these…
