Silky Sifaka Lemurs, Marojejy National Park, Madagascar – Photo by Kevin Schafer – @schaferpho @ナショナルジオグラフィック // There have been few moments in my career more satisfying than when my subjects have completely ignored me. Such was the case here, when a small group of sifakas descended from the canopy and decided to have an impromptu, entirely playful, wrestling match on the forest floor just a few yards away from me. So often in nature, animals are terrified by our presence – and generally with good reason – so being simply ignored is a rare privilege. Even more so when the animals are as rare as these Silky Sifakas, counted among the 10 most endangered primates on earth, restricted to a few remote mountaintops in Madagascar. For half an hour, they tangled on the ground, utterly ignoring me and my camera. Eventually they grew tired of the game and rejoined their troop in the trees. As for me, I felt I had been granted something very special, the chance to witness a rare behavior, and to be, if just for a short time, utterly invisible. #marojejy #simpona #silkysifaka #endangeredprimates #endangeredspecies #criticallyendangered #primates
