Pileated Gibbon

This Pileated Gibbon is in a rescue centre, and is hopefully able to return to the wild.
Pileated gibbons live in the forests of Thailand, Western Cambodia and South -Western Laos.

There are currently around 35,000 in Cambodia in the wild, with another 30,000 in Thailand

 

 

While these animals are not great apes, they are lesser apes, and are very interesting to watch. There are likely to be a great draw in places where Orangutans do not exist, such as on mainland Asia, as well as in smaller reserves that cannot support Orangutans.

 

 

This is not a species that I have written about, but if I do in the future, it will appear below. Furthermore, as we add destinations that are good for this species they will appear below the news
