A Bornean Gibbon I discovered and downloaded on August 30 of 2000. If this is an old photo of yours please let me know so I can credit you. This reminds me of the gibbons in the jungle of my beloved Borneo. I spent a year there from June of 1977 to June of 1978 but have spent the intervening 42 years passionate about saving the wildlife there like this gibbon. Their songs make the rainforest come alive. Gibbons are apes, (not monkeys) that live in the tropical and subtropical rain forests in several countries in South, East and South-East Asia including China, India, Bangladesh, Myanmar, Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, Vietnam, Malaysia, and Indonesia. We must do all we can to save their habitats and work with wildlife charities to fight threats like the illegal and legal pet trade and habitat destruction caused by expansion of palm oil plantations and logging operations. #Gibbons #Gibbon #Apes #LesserApes #AsianWildlife #SouthAsianWildlife #SoutheastAsiabWildlife #SaveTheRainforests #StopHabitatDestruction https://www.instagram.com/p/B9K1L0mgs76/?igshid=19tlvwii123v6
