Should the term "genera" in the taxobox be "species"? --Mishac 21:56, 21 Feb 2004 (UTC)
Nope. Galgonidae is a family, so the lower portion of the box lists the genera, despite the fact that the article lists all the species. - UtherSRG 22:07, 21 Feb 2004 (UTC)
It says in this article that they mark their paths with urine. But don't they do more than that? Don't they in fact pee on their hands and feet to have a better sticky hold on branches? --Mithcoriel 23:13, 3 February 2006 (UTC)
- I know what animal that your talking about, but it's not this one. It is of the same family though.

I've heard that each one of their eyes weighs more than their brain, is this true? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 131.111.8.97 (talk • contribs) .
Just watching a very silly film with Wife and Daughter, and Wife askd how long Bush Babies live. "Not as long as that", I said as the starring bush baby swam out of the crocodile-infested water. But the question still stands. [...] Not a lot on the web in general, but | Primate Information Network gives ages between 12 and 16.5 years. I'll stick that in. A Karley 13:25, 20 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Nagapie
If "nagapie" is Afrikaans, shouldn't we give the pronunciation here, I'd guess it's something similar to IPA [nax'ɑˑpi] (Nach-aahpih), not at all "nagga-pie", or any English equivalent... 惑乱 分からん 18:55, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Food Chain
I just read an article from Reuters, via Yahoo! Hunting chimps may change view of human evolution that says bush babies are prey for chimps. I didn't read anything in this entry about this being true. Can any one provide more info. or update? --HatchetFaceBuick 19:42, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Consistency of Family name
I noticed that the title of the pages is Galagidae, where as throughout the article its listed as Galagonidae (which is what both of my mammalogy textbooks list them as... Are these terms interchangable? If they are some sort of explanation should be included. Opendestiny (talk) 01:23, 31 March 2008 (UTC)
