Sifakas are medium-sized indris with a head and body length of 40 to 55 cm and a weight of 3 to 6 kg. Their tail is just as long as their body, which differentiates them from the Indri. Their fur is long and silky, with coloration varying by species from yellowish-white to blackish-brown. Their round, hairless face is always black

The fossa is the largest mammalian carnivore on Madagascar and has been compared to a small cougar, as it has convergently evolved many cat-like features. Adults have a head-body length of 70–80 cm (28–31 in) and weigh between 5.5 and 8.6 kg

The blue coca is a very beautiful blue bird with big feet to sit on branches .

The aye-aye is a long-fingered lemur, a strepsirrhine primate native to Madagascar with rodent-like teeth that perpetually grow[3] and a special thin middle finger that they can use to catch grubs and larvae out of tree trunks.

Its adult size is up to 90mm in total length, including the tail.[5] As with all Uroplatus geckos the tail is flattened, but the leaf-like appearance is only seen in the ebenaui complex (U. phantasticus, U. ebenaui, and U. malama; although the tail size is much reduced in U. ebenaui). It has often been debated whether U. phantasticus is in fact the same species as U. ebenaui (the Nosy Bé flat-tailed gecko).

Mahajilo is a river in Menabe, western Madagascar. It is formed by the affluents of the Sakay river and Kitsamby river. It flows down from the central highlands, to flow into the Tsiribihina River.
