Such an unusual white gibbon

He posed as a true "gentleman" :-)

Others of his kind were riding around in a cage so that not only did I not manage to focus, I did not have time to just follow their movement.

This kind of gibbons has a variety of colors: from sand to dark brown and even black, with the legs and hands they always have with white "cuffs," and the muzzle is black, but with a kind of such white edging.

Gibbons of this kind have long and very strong forelimbs, with the hind limbs short. They are very mobile and jumping. The tail of these primates do not.

Jumping from place to place, they love to swing on their strong hands. They prefer increased attention to themselves from the visitors.

In the wild, gibbons live up to 25 years, and in the conditions of the zoo their life expectancy increases slightly.

White Gibbons - carnivorous primates. 50% of their diet is fruit, 40% is for other vegetation, but 10% are taken away by insects. Primates eat flowers, figs, young leaves, vines, fresh shoots, and from insects prefer mantises, os, they love and bird eggs.
