The
aye-aye is separated from all other lemurs because of it's unique
characteristics.
It's teeth continually grow, like a rodent, throughout it's life. It
has large ears, dome shaped to emphasize sounds. These ears help it hear
larvae in dead wood and trees. It also has a very long, bony finger used
to extract larvae from holes.
Scientists are unsure of how to classify the aye - aye because of so
many different characteristics.
