The western woolly lemur or western avahi (''Avahi occidentalis'') is a species of woolly lemur native to western Madagascar, where they live in dry deciduous forests. These nocturnal animals weigh 0.7-0.9 kg. It is a folivorous species. The western woolly lemurs live in monogamous pairs together with their offspring. ==Ecology== The Western woolly lemur mostly consumes leaves and buds that derive from around 20 different plants which have not matured and have high levels of sugars and proteins.〔The Primata. (2007) ("Western Woolly Lemur (Avahi occidentalis)" ). Retrieved 2 April 2013.〕〔Arkive. (n.d.) ("Western Woolly Lemur (Avahi occidentalis)" ). Retrieved 3 April 2013.〕 The food is typically consumed within the time frame of two hours before dawn and two hours after dusk, in which the lemurs consume their food at the tops of trees ranging between 2 and 9 metres. During feeding time, lemurs typically settle on thinner branches unless the tree itself is too small to support the animal's weight. Most likely due to the lemur's folivorous diet, Western woolly lemurs spend large amounts of time resting in order to conserve energy.〔
