Sally, a four-year-old red ruffed lemur, gave birth to three unbelievably cute and wide-eyed offspring at the Woodland Park Zoo List on March 29, and the zoo is calling upon the good people of Seattle to choose their names.

The options in the public poll, which closes at 3 pm on Thursday, May 27, are nature-inspired words in Malagasy, the national language of the species' native Madagascar: Lanitra ("sky"), Masoandro ("sun"), Orana ("rain"), and Ravina ("leaf").
