Our infant sifaka was named Kelyfamata (which means “small but mighty”) because he was just 85 grams at birth, but very vigorous and healthy. Once he was able to locomote on his own, the keepers built him a special jungle gym that was sized specially for his petite dimensions, and that is what you see him jumping on in this video. He has almost outgrown it, but still enjoys leaping around on it in entertaining bouts of play.
