Notharctus (SciiFii)

The Eurasian-American lemurs (Notharctus sp.) are a genus of primates that originally lived in North America and Europe during the late to middle Eocene as extinct species of Notharctus and were once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and introduced to the modern rainforests, swamps, forests, open woodlands, and grasslands across North America and Eurasia to help boost biodiversity. The Eurasian-American lemurs are not true (Malagasy) lemurs, despite their names (although they are relatives of lemurs), instead, they belong to an infraorder known as the Adapiformes. Most species of Eurasian-American lemurs range from about the size of a medium-sized mouse lemur to about the size of a large sifaka, depending on a species. Unlike lemurs, Eurasian-American lemurs usually have shorter skull shapes and forward-facing eyes surrounded by an enclosed circle of bone. Their fingers are elongated for clamping onto branches, including the primitive development of thumbs. Their spines are flexible, like the lemurs, so they could bend their backs while climbing on vegetation/cables/ropes and running on land. All known species of Eurasian-American lemurs are omnivorous and they usually feed on fruits, leaves, and/or insects, although some larger species are known to feed on carrion. Some species of Eurasian-American lemurs are threatened or endangered, so they are a protected species, however, most species of Eurasian-American lemurs are adaptable and are in no risk of extinction.
