Detailed Solution

Concept: The small-bodied primate, which has a pointed snout, wide eyes, and is exclusively found on the red island, is a member of the same family as apes, monkeys, and humans.
Prosimians and Anthropoids are the two subgroups of primates. Lemurs, lorises, and tarsiers are a few examples of prosimians. The island of Madagascar split away from Africa prior to the evolution of lemurs, and anthropoid hunters now prey on lemurs for sustenance. They migrated to Madagascar in search of habitat and a chance at survival. All around the world, lemurs have become extinct, with the exception of Madagascar where they are maintained by other primates like monkeys and apes.
Hence, the correct answer is option 3.
