Back to Primate Posse Bornean Gibbon Hylobates muelleri
Order: Primates
Family: Hylobatidae
I. DESCRIPTION:
  • The Bornean gibbon is basically gray-brown in color, but its coat ranges widely in terms of color and pattern.
  • The gibbon is most often detected by the loud, bubbling call of the adult female, which can be heard during the first hours of daylight and can carry for a distance of under 1.5 miles under suitable conditions.
  • The top of the gibbon's head and chest are darker than the rest of its body.
  • Bornean gibbons measure 17 to 25 inches in length, and weigh 13 to 22 pounds.
  • The Bornean gibbon has buttock pads, long canine teeth and no tail. The basal part of its thumb extends from the wrist rather than the palm of the hand, allowing for a great range of movement.
  • The male and female are generally the same size and have the same features.
  • Bornean gibbons walk upright with their hands over their heads for balance when walking on the ground, although they do not cover long distances in this fashion.

h Découverte au Vietnam d'un groupe de primates menacés Afin de protéger cette espèce, il serait indispensable de créer une zone de conservation dans la région, de proposer aux populations locales un combustible remplaçant le bois afin de stopper la déforestation et d'empêcher les braconniers de chasser ces primates dont les os sont recherchés par la médecine traditionnelle, notamment en Chine, a conclu le spécialiste. HANOI (AFP), le 18-09-2002 Un groupe de Gibbons à crêtes noires, que l'on pensait disparus depuis plus de 30 ans, a été découvert dans le nord du Vietnam et des mesures urgentes sont nécessaires pour protéger ces animaux.
Frank Momberg, directeur pour le Vietnam de l'organisation Faune et Flore International (FFI), a précisé qu'un groupe de 26 de ces primates a été vu le mois dernier dans la province montagneuse de Cao bang, frontalière de la Chine, par une expédition à laquelle participait le primatologue suisse Thomas Geissmann, l'un des experts mondiaux des Gibbons.
"Du fait que cette population, qui avait déjà été signalée au début de l'année par deux biologistes vietnamiens, comporte suffisamment de mâles et de femelles, il est possible qu'elle puisse survivre", a ajouté M. Momberg.

Hi Med Low ... Low
On April 21, 2001 Nashville Zoo opened Gibbon Islands to the public, officially introducing apes to the park. At the time of the opening the exhibit hosted two different species of apes; siamang gibbons and white-handed gibbons. The exhibit is now host to siamang gibbons and white-cheeked gibbons. Considered the crown jewel of the Zoo's Entry Village, Gibbon Islands are two beautifully landscaped hills complete with trees (some as high as 60 feet), shrubs, grass and boulders. The two islands are actually two buildings buried with tons of soil and rock and surrounded by a 4-foot deep moat giving guests an unobstructed view of the primates. Like most primate species, gibbons will not enter the water so the moat will keep the apes in their exhibit. Gibbons comprise a family of primates commonly called "Lesser Apes". These active primates live almost exclusively in trees and rarely descend to the ground. With their arms primarily used for travel, gibbons use their feet to carry food and other objects.

Gibbons
The largest gibbon is the siamang of Malaysia and Sumatra. In 1979 the Grant Park Zoo in Atlanta, Georgia, reported a four-year-old female “siabon,” the hybrid offspring of a male silvery gibbon and a female siamang; this was the first known mating involving different primate species. Populations of wild gibbons have been severely reduced due to hunting and deforestation. Scientific classification: Gibbons make up the family Hylobatidae and genus Hylobates. The silvery gibbon is classified as Hylobates moloch, the whitehanded gibbon as Hylobates lar. The siamang is classified as Hylobates syndactylus.

http://www.bio.davidson.edu/people/vecase/Behavior/Spring2004/eppolito/predators
Predators and Threats Compared to other small primates, gibbons have very few natural predators and a low predation rate. Leopards, pythons, and birds of prey, such as eagles and owls, are their most significant natural threats (Kappeler 1981). Gibbons are able to avoid predation in most cases by remaining in upper levels of the forest. Gibbons are rarely found less than 10 meters above the ground, where the leopards and pythons are most often found ( Kappeler 198 1). Sleeping in the very upper canopies is also a method of avoiding predation, as well as using their camouflaging fur color to their advantage while resting in trees ( Kappeler 1981 During activities such as eating and grooming, gibbons exhibit periods of vigilance, during which they stop their activity and scan the area for potential threats ( Kappeler 1981 ). Following singing and other noisy or obvious behaviors, gibbons will quietly migrate to a new area in order to avoid being found by a predator ( Kappeler 1981
Thus, while the gibbon faces very few natural predators as a result of its presence and agility in trees, man has become a significant threat to the survival of the gibbon. For information about gibbon and other primate conservation, visit

A gibbon can be difficult to draw right because of the white mask on its face and thick fur, but if you follow our instructions you should be able to create a very fine likeness.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY ARUN RANGSI! One very special gibbon at the International Primate Protection League is called Arun Rangsi (a Thai name which means The Rising Sun of Dawn). Arun Rangsi was once a laboratory research animal, but now lives a happy life at the IPPL sanctuary in Summerville, S.C. with his gibbon friend Shanti. On August 9, 1999 Arun Rangsi was 20 years old. Practice drawing your gibbons, and show Arun Rangsi how much we care about him. STEP 1 Two circles, like a pair of glasses. STEP 2
Add two more circles inside the first ones. Color the inside circles in, leaving a white spot, called a highlight. These inside circles are the eyes. STEP 3
Draw a circle (about twice as big as the first circles you did), but don't finish it, starting at the bottom part of the "glasses" on the left side to the bottom left part of the "glasses" on the right side. STEP 4
Add the nose (a V) and the mouth, just a curved line. Don't put your nose too high up, but pretty close to the mouth.

var cm_role = "live" var cm_host = "tripod.lycos.com" var cm_taxid = "/memberembedded"
White-handed Gibbon ( Hylobates lar
MORPHOLOGY:
This species has relatively long forearms which assist it in suspensory behavior . This species has throat sac located beneath the chin to help enhance the calls. The white-handed gibbon lacks a tail, caudal vertebrae. The average body mass for an adult male white-handed gibbon is around 5.7 kilograms, and for the female it is around 5.3 kilograms. Pelage color for this species ranges from dark brown to beige.
RANGE:
The white-handed gibbon is found in the countries of Burma, China, Indonesia, Malaysia, and Thailand. This species is found in semideciduous monsoon forests and tropical evergreen forests, and these are either of primary or secondary forest types.
ECOLOGY:
The white-handed gibbon is a frugivorous species, but will also consume immature leaves and insects. The white-handed gibbon prefers to consume fruits high in sugar such as the fig ( Ficus ). This an arboreal and a diurnal species. This species sleeps and rests in the emergent trees (Leighton, 1987).

http://www.hmssurprise.org/NatlHist/Gibbon.html
In Post Captain , Captain Aubrey takes temporary command of H.M.S. Lively. On deck for the first time he is taken aback by calls from the rigging, which at first he first mistakes for a boy, but then is told they come from a “Java Ape”. This is a gibbon - a siamang ( Hylobates syndactylus , aver. wgt. 23 lbs.) – one of the species of gibbon and one that is very vocal, like the one on the Lively. Gibbons are lessor apes, distantly related to humans, who are great apes. You can see they are smaller with longer arms, adapted to spend most of their life in the treetops. They brachiate (travel arm over arm swinging from the branches) and do not jump from branch to branch, as do smaller primates. They form nuclear families, with the parents mated for life and the young raised by both parents. Gibbons are omnivorous, eating foods found in the forest canopy: leaves, fruit, seeds, insects, eggs, birds, etc. But the doctor and the Captain also had to content with another ape on the Lively, at least part of one.

Whitehanded or Lar Gibbon Facts
Includes information on other gibbon species.
Primary Source: Leighton 1986
Photos by Tim Knight Identification Gibbons are the smallest of the apes. Most species weigh about 5 kg, although Hylobates hoolock weigh slightly more (6 to 8 kg), and the siamang Hylobates syndactylus is twice as large (10 to 12 kg). Gibbons are prototypical brachiators, with long arms and hands and flexible forelimb joints. Scientists are still debating whether these morphological features originally evolved for efficient food collection (i.e. hang-feeding and climbing on small branches; Fleagle 1976) or for efficient travel between food sources (Temerin and Cant 1983). The small size and suspensor locomotion of gibbons permit them to move more easily and directly through the rain forest canopy than sympatric orangutans and macaques (Temerin and Cant 1983; Grand 1984). Geographic Range Gibbons are restricted to tropical evergreen and less seasonal parts of semievergreen rain forests in Asia. H. agilis
