Coastal, riparian, montane, and highland forest from sea level to 2500 m,also agricultural mosaic habitats (coconut and clove plantations), coral rag, forest edge, and major river valleys. A highly adaptable species, it is found in midto high-canopy coastal and montane tropical forest and in gallery forest. It is also able to persist in secondary and highly fragmented forest, cultivated areas, and sometimes suburbs.

), may tempt individuals to congregate and feed together. Although most observations suggest Garnett’s Greater Galagos eat mainly fruit, nocturnal observations of insect hunting are difficult to obtain. Indeed, 50% offecal pellets contain insects and the other 50% contain seeds. Stomach-content analysis gives a similar result. Invertebrates are the animal prey of choice and include beetles, orthopterans, centipedes, spiders, ants, caterpillars, millipedes, bugs, snails, and termites. An occasional bird is also eaten. Garnett’s Greater Galagos sometimes also forage on bananas, breadfruit, mangos, paw paw, and other crops, including coconuttree sap used by local people for the production of palm wine.

Garnett’s Greater Galagos are nocturnal and arboreal. They have a quadrupedal locomotion strategy. When leaping, they tend to land hindfeetfirst. Hopping is the normal mode of progression on the ground.

Garnett’s Greater Galagos spend their day in a sleeping site of tangled vegetation in tall bushes or trees. They apparently do not make nests or sleep in tree holes. Males sleep alone; females sleep with their offspring. Males are mainly solitary, with a home range of c.17 ha, but reciprocal grooming and play occur. Less social behavior is seen among Garnett’s Greater Galagos than among Thick-tailed Greater Galagos, possibly because of the presence of fewer infants. Female territories are c.12 ha. There is little overlap between home ranges of adults of the same age, but extensive overlap occurs among individuals of different ages. Matriarchies are present. In coastal Kenya, individuals travel c.1-6 km/night. Fully adult individuals, even of the opposite sex, rarely sleep together. Young females mature in their natal ranges, but males disperse to other areas. A loud trailing call is given by both sexes to announce their presence to conspecifics.
