      The lemur was a super friendly ringtail at the Toronto Zoo in Canada. I was filming a television series with National Geographic, called ‘Jurassic CSI’ and we were looking at the different adaptations that reptiles and mammals possess for prey capture and defence. The lemur quickly jumped on my head, when I picked-up the snake…a very sensible response!
