Lemurs are weird creatures. Apparently they love camera equipment:

Their red cousins are even worse:

I actually do plan to take a shot of one of them that looks like he or she is taking a selfie.

Extremely friendly. They even come up to you when they want to be pet, they love the attention.
In this case my camera was just more interesting for her

Ring-Tailed Lemurs also love camera equipment by the way:
