During the early morning hours various groups of lemurs, such as Verreaux's Sifaka, Ring-tailed Lemur or Brown Lemur, usually play in the trees and on the ground near the old colonial style building. Other animals in the park include chameleons, tortoises, crocodiles and a wide variety of birds. <googlemap version="0.9" lat="-24.974553" lon="46.980511" type="satellite" zoom="17" width="600" height="400" controls="large" style="width:100%;max-width:600px;">
