The white-handed gibbon, also known as the lar gibbon, is a small primate found in the forests of Southeast Asia. They are characterized by their long arms, which help them swing through trees, and their distinctive white hands and feet. These gibbons are social animals, often living in family groups and communicating through loud calls. White-handed gibbons primarily eat fruits, leaves, and flowers, making them important seed dispersers in their ecosystem. They are known for their acrobatic movements and can travel quickly through the treetops. Unfortunately, their populations are threatened by habitat loss and hunting, leading to conservation efforts to protect their natural habitats.
