It looks like a ZANZIBAR BUSHBABY (no, we're not talking about Bush's babies), it walks like one...but it's different! I show you WWF MAXICARDS from TANZANIA with 4 stamps about The ZANZIBAR BUSHBABY (Galago zanzibaricus), but only 1 of the 4 postcards is matching the species! The other 3 postcards show 3 other species of BUSHBABIES! :)




So, all stamps show the same Zanzibar Bushbaby species, but the postcards show as follows 
(I updated the info with Wikipedia).

Upper-left:
"The brown greater galago (Otolemur crassicaudatus) is a nocturnal primate, the largest in the family of galagos."

Upper-right:
"The Senegal bushbaby (Galago senegalensis), also known as the Senegal galago, the lesser galago or the lesser bush baby, is a small, nocturnal primate, a member of the galago family Galagidae."

Lower-left:
"The Zanzibar bushbaby (Galago zanzibaricus) is a primate of the Galagidae family. An adult typically weighs 100–300 grams and is 34–39.5 centimetres long (3.5–10.5 oz, 13.5–15.5 in). Like other species of galagos, their diet consists mainly of fruit."

Lower-right:
"The northern greater galago (Otolemur garnettii), also known as Garnett's greater galago, is a prosimian primate endemic to Africa."

"Dorincard: Blogger Dorin C is a stamp and postcard fanatic, and luckily he's more than pleased to write prolifically and charmingly about his obsession. He has a particular bent for stamps with wild mammals on them, but his blog demonstrates an affinity for stamps of all forms and backgrounds, as long as they offer a special narrative that's worth sharing with his readers.

    Postcards and stamps, mainly featuring mammals and birds but Dorincard also has other creations
    and interests he likes to share.
    His enthusiasm for Maximum cards (a postcard and a similar themed stamps sent through the
    postal system) shines through.
    He shows how he gets the right card, stamp and postmark together.
    Visiting his site you will also learn things about the natural world told with a dry sense of humour,
    possibly with a play on words, and a unique style of headings.
    Topical and informative both for the enthusiast and casual visitor.
