The aye-aye is a lemur, a strepsirrhine primate native to Madagascar and the world's largest nocturnal primate. It shares a lot in common with the woodpecker - it taps trees to find grubs. When food is located it uses its rodent-like teeth to gnaw a hole, then digs them out with its long middle finger.
Food: animal matter, nuts, insect larvae, fruits, nectar, seeds, fungi, cerambycid beetles, grasshoppers and worms.
Habitat: east coast of Madagascar -- rainforest or deciduous forest
