About the Lemur word search

The word list runs easy-to-medium: LEAP, TAIL and FOREST are quick finds, while ENDANGERED, NOCTURNAL and RINGTAILED take a slower scan. It suits solvers from about 7 up. Ring-tailed lemurs carry their striped tails straight up when the group is on the move, a detail young readers tend to remember.
