The Northern giant mouse lemur (Mirza zaza), is a new species of giant mouse lemur which was discovered to be a new species in 2005 by Kappeler, from the German primates centre and the University of Göttingen. Before, both populations of giant mouse lemurs were believed to belong to one species. The northern giant mouse lemurs are small nocturnal lemurs endemic to Madagascar. They weigh about 300 grams (11 oz), and have long, bushy tails and relatively small ears. Their large testicles are an indication of their promiscuous copulation system.
