Ring-tailed lemur communication is complex as they utilize visual, vocal, olfactory, and tactile communication.

Visual communication signals, such as body postures and facial expressions are used by ring-tailed lemurs in addition to vocal communication and scent marking.

Tactile communication is important between mothers and their young, as well as between mates. This includes grooming, play, and mating.
