What is something surprising about lemurs the general public might not know?

Also, where do you see the future of academia in the UK going?

Gentle lemurs are cathemeral (they are active day and night) and the only
lemur species living above water in bamboo and papyrus reed beds. They are also
known locally as ‘bandro’; the bandro is culturally sacred to Madagascar’s
Sihanaka tribe. Oh, and surprisingly females are dominant over males and can be
quite aggressive!
Regarding the future of UK academia, there are concerns due to the uncertainty
about accessing to EU research funds and network of colleagues, but here at
Wolverhampton we are doing well and optimistic about the future!
