Scientists discovered two new lemur species, named Microcebus lehilahytsara (shown here) and Mirza zaza, in one of the most studied rain forests of Madagascar. New primate species are rare finds, though the animals' small size -- about the size of a mouse and a grey squirrel, respectively -- help explain why they were never spotted before.
