B Correct answer
Explanation

Madagascar is the only country where lemurs are found in the wild, and it's home to over 100 lemur species, including the famous ring-tailed lemurs and indri. Lemurs are endemic to Madagascar - they evolved in isolation after the island separated from India around 88 million years ago. Australia has marsupials like kangaroos, not lemurs.
