The weather’s been a bit gloomy this week, but the mood has been considerably brighter at Happy Hollow Park & Zoo in San Jose, thanks to two new baby red-ruffed lemurs.

The pups, who appropriately arrived the Friday of Mother’s Day weekend last month, are the first to be born at the zoo since 2009 — and that is a very big deal. Red-ruffed lemurs are considered critically endangered by the International Union of the Conservation of Nature and are found only in a small part of Madagascar — and San Jose, it seems.
