The North Western Woolly Lemur or Sambirano Woolly Lemur ( Avahi unicolor) is a primate of the group of lemurs. He is only since the year 2000 as an independent from the Western Woolly Lemur Art

Northwestern Wollmakis reach a body length 25-29 centimeters, what still is a 33 -centimeter-long tail. It weighs about 0.85 kilograms. Her thick, woolly fur is gray brown on the top, the belly is light gray. The long, bushy tail is gray -brown to red-brown. The facial hair is shorter, which it contrasts with the woolly hair of the head, in contrast to the Western Woolly Lemur, it is not white. The eyes are large, brown and surrounded by dark rings, the ears are small.

Like all lemurs live in Madagascar. Its distribution area covers the Sambirano region in the northwest of the island, but the exact dimensions are not known. Their habitat is humid forests up to 700 meters above sea level. They are nocturnal and arboreal, which move vertically climbing and jumping.
