- and powerful night leaping
nocturnal, sleeping by day in nests, tree holes, or dense vegetation. The rhythm keeps Nightjudge tied to real energy management and safety.
04
Why African forests?
Habitat: African forests, woodland canopy, riverine trees, and dense night cover fit Greater Galago because the environment rewards the exact survival pattern behind Nightjudge.
