Author name: Phil Reeks
Phil is a 27 year old volunteer lemur keeper at the Howlett's Wild Animal Park in the United Kingdom. He blogs for the Lemur Conservation Network about all things related to lemurs as well as the trials and tribulations of working in captive lemur management. Phil has visited rainforests of Bolivia, Thailand and Sumatra and even completed a half-marathon in 2012 for slow lorises. However, lemurs have always been close to his heart and 2015 is Phil's 'Year of the Lemur'. He ran a half-marathon for greater bamboo lemurs and indris, raising over £500 for the Aspinall Foundation. In June, he will visit Madagascar for the first time. Please visit his blog 'Eye of the Lemur' for more details on Phil's charity work.
