...Timothy M. Sefczek; Zach J. Farris; Patricia C. Wright In this research, we focused on aye-aye populations in Ranomafana National Park, Madagascar. From August to December 2008, we tested how aye-aye feeding was influenced by presence/absence of both fruiting and non-fruiting Canarium trees...

...Anna T.C. Feistner; Caroline J. Ashbourne An adult wild-caught female aye-aye (Daubentonia madagascaríensis) and her captive-bred offspring were studied for 2 weeks pre partum and 52 weeks post partum. Data on activity, substrate use, approach-leave interactions and social interactions were...

...Renée M. Winn This paper provides descriptive and quantitative information on the development of a young aye-aye in captivity during its first 10 months of life. The mother’s behaviour was observed to provide an adult standard against which to evaluate the young male’s development. Early...

...Renée M. Winn This paper deals with the process of mating among captive aye-ayes (Daubentonia madagascariensis). Data on sexual behaviour of 3 wild-caught aye-ayes were collected over a period of 3 years (1986-1989). The group of 2 adult females and a young male was housed at the Vincennes Zoo...

...Eleanor J. Sterling; Ellen S. Dierenfeld; Caroline J. Ashbourne; Anna T.C. Feistner Data are presented on dietary and nutrient intake in a wild population of aye-ayes. Study animals ate 4 main food types: seeds, nectar, fungus and insect larvae. Calculated calorie intake was slighty lower during...

...Carl J. Erickson The trees on which aye-ayes forage contain complex communities of organisms. Aye-ayes appear to use tap-scanning behaviour, in combination with complex perceptual and inferential capabilities, to exploit these communities as a source of food. In doing so, they alter them, perhaps...

...Anna T.C. Feistner; Eluned C. Price; Garrett W. Milliken Aye-ayes possess highly adapted hands, using their specialized third digits to investigate potential food sources by tapping and the third or fourth digits to transfer food to the mouth. Observations were conducted on 11 captive aye-ayes (10...

...Marc Ancrenaz; Isabelle Lackman-Ancrenaz; Nick Mundy Data are presented from a field study of aye-ayes (Daubentonia madagascariensis) in an area of degraded secondary forest in northeast Madagascar. Animals were followed by radiotelemetry for 3 months during the cool dry season, when productivity...

...Eleanor J. Sterling During the course of a 2-year field study on aye-ayes (Daubentonia madagascariensis), data were collected on dietary composition, food acquisition and structural properties of food resources. Aye-ayes in this study sampled remarkably few species from a variety of food types...

...Mina Andriamasimanana An ecoethological study was undertaken on the activity rhythms, diet, ranging and social behavior of 3 aye-ayes. Preliminary information on reproduction and mother-infant relations are given. The study included research into the different habitat types in which the aye-aye...

...Bryan Carroll; David M. Haring The husbandry practices of the 3 institutions currently holding captive aye-ayes outside Madagascar (Jersey Wildlife Preservation Trust, Duke University Primate Center and Paris Zoo) are reviewed. Information on housing, diet, oestrous cycles and infant rearing...

...Eluned C. Price; Anna T.C. Feistner The ability of 6 captive aye-ayes (Daubentonia madagascariensis) to discriminate scents from conspecifics of different age-sex classes was tested. The animals were presented with either unscented logs or logs that had been placed in: (1) their own cage, (2...

...E.L Simons Subfossils of a giant form of aye-aye are found at scattered sites in the south and southwest of the island of Madagascar, outside the known distribution of the living, or common, aye-aye. The subfossil aye-aye, named Daubentonia robusta, has massive, robust limb bones implying a species...

...Deborah J. Curtis; Anna T.C. Feistner The aye-aye shows numerous special features in its postcranial skeleton, partly in association with its unusual feeding habits and partly in association with locomotor specialisation connected with the possession of claws. This study examined the positional...

...Jörg U. Ganzhorn; Joseph Rabesoa In the course of a study on the ecology of nocturnal lemurs several aye-aye (Daubentonia madagascariensis) were seen in the eastern rainforest of Madagascar near Perinet. These observations of the aye-aye in a forest of higher altitude suggest a still much wider...
