“太阳崇拜者”——环尾狐猴
环尾狐猴（学名：Lemur catta）属于原始灵长类，吻长、两眼侧向似狐，因尾具环节斑纹而得名。

分布于非洲马达加斯加岛南部和西部的干燥森林中。

每天当太阳升到一定高度的时候，它就摊开四肢，正面朝着太阳，以驱赶夜里的寒气，因此人们把它称作“太阳崇拜者”。

"The sun worshippers"—the Ring-tailed Lemur
The species has a slender frame and narrow face, fox-like muzzle. The ring-tailed lemur's trademark—a long, bushy tail—is ringed in alternating black and white transverse stripes, numbering 12 or 13 white rings and 13 or 14 black rings, and always ending in a black tip. It inhabits gallery forests to spiny scrub in the southern regions of the island of Madagascar. In the mornings the ring-tailed lemur sunbathes to warm itself. It faces the sun sitting in what is frequently described as a "sun-worshipping" posture or lotus position.。
