gibbon
Gibbons are small, agile primates found in the tropical forests of Southeast Asia. They belong to the family Hylobatidae and are known for their long arms and ability to swing through trees, a behavior called brachiation. Gibbons are social animals, often living in family groups and communicating with loud calls.
There are several species of gibbons, including the Lar Gibbon and the Siamang. They primarily eat fruits, leaves, and flowers, making them important for seed dispersal in their habitats. Gibbons are currently threatened by habitat loss and hunting, leading to conservation efforts to protect their populations.
