Where are the gibbons?
Absolutely all kinds of gibbons live in the Asian region. Their homeland – a forest of India, Malaysia, Burma, Thailand, Cambodia, Vietnam and even China. When choosing places of residence, these monkeys prefer dense humid forests. Some species, however, the rise in the mountains, but not higher than 2000 meters above sea level.
Gibbons are active only during the day. Scientists scrutinize the lifestyle lar gibbon, came to the conclusion that these primates are able, not more nor less than to organize the schedule yourself. Their daily schedule is a strictly allotted time for a meal, to relax, to care for themselves and posterity, to communicate with relatives, to sleep, etc.
The gibbons eat?
These monkeys prefer vegetarian food. Mainly, choose juicy leaves, but can “spice up” their nuts, flowers and delicious fruits (bananas, rambutans). But among family and gibbons carnivores, they feed on the eggs of birds, and sometimes even young ones, although most eat insects.
Interesting fact: Gibbons did not know how to drink – in the usual sense of the word – they just can abundantly wet the hair on the arms, and then suck it, thus absorbing the moisture.
All gibbons – a very mobile creatures. They love group games with cousins. Gibbons quickly become accustomed to humans, and also eager to establish contacts with other kinds of animals. They are rarely aggressive or evil, contrary to popular opinion.
Regarding the choice of partners, the gibbons – monogamous. They prefer to live in pairs or families (male, female and their offspring). In nature, gibbons live about 25 years, but one of the family members lived until the age of 50 years!
The birth of a baby a couple of gibbons – a rare event, because the baby is born once in 3 or even 4 years. Caring parents holding the baby near her first three years of life, all the while the mother feeds him milk.

And who knows how many more species may be in a similar situation, if people do not stop mercilessly conquer every piece of land for the sake of only one’s own benefit and profit.
