Grant's bushbaby

Grant's bushbaby, Paragalago granti, also known as Grant's lesser bushbaby or the Mozambique lesser bushbaby, is a species of primate in the family Galagidae found in Malawi, Mozambique, Tanzania and Zimbabwe. It is a small galago with a long, slender, well-furred tail, a pale grey forehead and darker grey crown, blackish eye-rings continuing along the snout, long broad ears that are black on the outside, and drab brown fur whose hairs are tipped buffy-brown, fading to whitish at the feet, with creamy-buff cheeks, throat and underparts. It occurs near the East African coast between the Rufiji River in Tanzania and the Limpopo River in southern Mozambique, with separate inland populations, at least as high as 1,800 metres in the Thyolo Mountains of Malawi and the Chimanimani region of Zimbabwe. It inhabits coastal and montane mixed forest, gallery forests and miombo woodland. It is a common species and the International Union for Conservation of Nature has assessed its conservation status as least concern.
