The adventurers will be working with a film crew to study lemurs and other unique animals found no where else in the world. Throughout their travels they'll see hissing cockroaches, painted mantella frogs, black and white ruffed lemurs, and a variety of other native species. But will the crew find the rare and mysterious aye-aye?
