The park is home to nine species of diurnal and nocturnal lemurs live in a 5-hectare wooded environment of more than 70 plant species of which 40 species are endemic to Madagascar. Lemurs can then feed on leaves or insects, in addition to fruits and vegetables that are given their as complements and since 2001, it was found that more than 11,000 trees have been planted.
