Other chapters cover its life cycle, diet, unique feeding habits, and habitat, including a map. Predators, including humans, are also introduced, along with threats to the aye-aye's environment, such as deforestation, and conservation efforts that are in place. Every book in the Nocturnal Animals series includes sidebars on scientific classification, the special features of the nocturnal eye, and the difference between nocturnal, diurnal, and crepuscular animals.
