Following my last post, I took a lot of photos at Valencia zoo Friday but did not make a note of exactly what animals they were. I will, of course, be going back there regularly for some more photos, so I can get all these details myself; but I thought it might be fun to test your knowledge and see if you can identify the exact species in these photographs.

thanks for your help, they are labelled, shot 1, shot2, etc

Not 100% certain but I think that first pic is a Red-Bellied Lemur, not a Brown Lemur as previously stated. I'll be interested to hear from any lemur experts to see which theory - if either - is correct!

Is that last shot an extreme close up of a Rhino?

I wasn't 100% sure what lemur species it was, so i took a guess...

They look like pig-tailed macaques, but of course the photo doesn't show whether they have long or short tails. Bonnet macaques always have black hair on their head, but it is usually parted in the middle with white hair.
 
I say pig-tailed macaques
