Life at Large looks at Ghosts at the end of the Earth

Lemurs are animals unique to Madagascar. They have been isolated on this vast island off the south-east coast of Africa for 20 million years. Shy, gentle, and in some cases beautiful creatures, they have in time been hunted by the Malagasy people as food and feared as reincarnations of the dead.
This film was made during an Oxford University Expedition to carry out field studies, and is a detailed look at one of Man's most fascinating relatives.
