Aye-aye

The aye-aye is a peculiar primate found only in Madagascar. With its oversized, bony fingers and constantly growing teeth, it looks like a mix between a lemur and a rodent. It uses its extra-long middle finger to tap on trees and fish out insects hiding inside.

• Uses its thin middle finger to scoop insects from tree bark.
