Samuel is a white cheeked gibbon who lives in Bristol Zoo. White-cheeked gibbons are found in Laos, Vietnam, and southern China in evergreen tropical rainforests and monsoon forests. Gibbons have a home range of about 75 to 100 acres (0.3 to 0.4 km2) and travel about one mile (1.6 km) per day through this range. They defend approximately three-quarters of their range as their group territory. Defense takes the form of calls from the center of the territory, calls from the boundaries, confrontations across the boundaries, chasing across the boundaries, and, rarely, physical contact between males. Gibbons are arboreal and spend most of their time in the canopy. They rarely stay on the ground for very long. All gibbons are endangered, largely due to deforestation. They are also hunted and trapped for the pet trade.

(Thanks Natlaie) Female, she was right up against the glass and very curious at all the visitors!
If you have never seen or heard the Siamang Songs or Calls, it’s a must see if you visit a zoo where they reside. It’s nothing short of magnificent!! The male puts on a real show for the female, and in this shot, his ending pose. Their throat pouch expands to the size of their head, and like a bag pipe, they squeeze it with their chin. This allows them to make loud resonating calls or songs. The Siamang is a black furred Gibbon, and native to the forests of Malaysia, Thailand, and Sumatra. Canon 50D, 400mm.

Not many at all… They are also popular victims of the exotic pet trade. / You can help Silvery Gibbons by clicking here My article on palm oil and its effect on Orangutans can be found here My Gibbon Images http://www.animusphotography.com
A pastel painting of Lemurs chasing each other enjoying their games. Soft pastels on pastel paper I saw these Lemurs at the Bristol Zoo in England. Like all monkeys they just fascinated me. Their energy is now stop. I have tried to put them back into their natural habitat.
Belonging to the primates, the tarsier is very small, about 16 cm without the tail. He is a nocturnal animal, just moving to feed mostly insects. His head is as big as his body and he has also very big eyes

Gorillas are the largest of the living primates. They are ground-dwelling herbivores that inhabit the forests of Africa. Gorillas are divided into two species and (still under debate as of 2008) either four or five subspecies. The DNA of gorillas is 98%–99% identical to that of a human, and they are the next closest living relatives to humans after the two chimpanzee species. / The Eastern Gorilla is more darkly coloured than the Western Gorilla, with the Mountain Gorilla being the darkest of all. The Mountain Gorilla also has the thickest hair. The Western Lowland Gorilla can be brown or greyish with a reddish forehead. In addition, gorillas that live in lowland forests are more slender and agile than the more bulky Mountain Gorilla. / Almost all gorillas share the same blood type and, like humans, have individual finger prints / Both species of gorilla are endangered, and have been subject to intense poaching for a long time. Threats to gorilla survival include habitat destruction and the bushmeat trade. ~Wikipedia / Panasonic FZ20 / 1/60s, f/2.8, ISO:200
