- Description:
- Founded in 1966, the Duke Lemur Center (DLC) is a non-invasive research center housing the most diverse lemur population in the world outside of Madagascar. This fossil cast is an Aegyptopithecus specimen, or “The Egyptian Monkey.” It was named in 1965 by Elwyn Simons, the father of modern primate paleontology and the founder of the DLC Division of Fossil Primates, now the DLC Museum of Natural History. This VHS copy of Zoboomafoo was an Emmy Award-winning children’s television series hosted by Chris Kratt and Martin Kratt (T’89). It originally aired on PBS from 1999 to 2001. The title character, Zoboo, was played by a Coquerel’s sifaka named Jovian, who was a resident of the DLC.
