Becuase of their white fur, and their amazing ability to fly through the forest, silky sifaka lemurs are called "Angels of the Forest." But silkies are one of the world's top twenty-five most endangered primates. If silky sifaka lemurs were to disappear from Madagascar, then they would disappear from our world.

At the forefront of these efforts is PhD candidate Erik Patel. From the Series:Angels of the Forest
