Historical lemur husbandry manual for sale
 Parc Zoologique d'Asson is selling the first husbandry manual ever written (in French at least) about lemurs to support the campaign. The manual was published in 1971 and mentions ring-tailed, brown, gentle, red bellied and crowned lemurs. It is a true collectors item and of great historical interest. Only 20 copies will be sold.
The manual contains twelve pages about the natural habitat of lemurs, conservation, feeding captive lemurs, acclimatisation, and breeding (the first baby brown lemur, experiences in breeding of various lemur species: grey bamboo lemur, ring tailed lemur, ruffed lemur). On top of all that it also includes much information about the work with
lemurs in Zoo d'Asson during the 60's.
For more information about the manual or if you are interested to buy a copy, please contact the Association Zoologique d'Asson (assozooasson@yahoo.fr).
