I always thought the pictures of the aye-aye circulating around the net where photo manipulation. ❋ Unknown (2009)

Brian Verrelli and his ASU team have performed the first sweeping, genetic evolutionary study of color vision in the aye-aye (pronounced "eye-eye"), a bushy-tailed, Madagascar native primate. ❋ Unknown (2007)

I think the book was the first to introduce to the world the marvellous diversity of wildlife on Madagascar - and, incidentally, the aye-aye. ❋ Time_shark (2009)

Music:trust no one ...a baby aye-aye at Denver Zoo, by the good offices of the Telegraph's `Animal Pictures Of The Week' feature, a fecund source of LOLs and sigs. ❋ Unknown (2009)

The lemurs and other primates at far right are among the best here: there's an aye-aye, a sifaka, indri and others. ❋ Darren Naish (2006)

One of the most unusual lemur species is the aye-aye (Daubentonia madagascariensis, EN), which has huge ears, shaggy fur, continuously growing incisors (like a rodent), and a very thin middle finger on each hand, that together with its large ears are used for catching woodboring insect larvae or excavating coconuts. ❋ Unknown (2008)

While millions of dollars have gone into saving the last three thousand pandas just because they're cute, at least one sorry creature—the aye-aye—is bound for extinction because it's ugly. ❋ William Harryman (2007)

One of my absolute favorite primate species is the aye-aye - the world's most unusual lemur. ❋ Field Notes (2007)

The aye-aye's brain is much larger than it should be, and the night monkey, despite having few cones in its retina, does NOT have a smaller brain than it should, so like the aye-aye, its brain is larger than it should be. ❋ Field Notes (2006)

First, the aye-aye and the night monkey don't fit the equation for the visual acuity/big brain relationship. ❋ Field Notes (2006)

But when your civilian master makes a decision, you salute and say, aye-aye. ❋ Unknown (2006)
