Bipedal Lemur

I have just seen a program on BBC television (about the Rift in Africa)
which shows a large lemur in Madagascar bounding along upright on two
feet. These lemurs apparently stand upright on branches. Does anyone
know which species of lemur it was?

Could this be an indication of how Apiths first ventured out of the
forests?

Any thoughts, Elaine?
