We discuss the possibility that some of the microlensing events found by the MACHO collaboration towards the LMC might be due to lenses located in the LMC halo, rather then in the halo of the Milky Way. Indeed, the dark matter fraction in form of MACHOs of both Milky Way and LMC halos need not to be the same. For a MACHO mass in the range 0.1-0.3 M&sun;, the LMC halo fraction can be larger than the Milky Way one.
