The Dusky Langur, Also Known As The Dusky Leaf Mon..

The Dusky Langur, also known as the Dusky Leaf Monkey, is a species of leaf-eating primate found in Peninsular Malaysia, Myanmar and Thailand 🐒

You may spot them not only in the forests of Peninsular Malaysia, but even in some urban settings feeding on leaves and fruit 🌿🌳🏙.

Sometimes known as the Spectacled Langur, they have distinctive white circles around their eyes, making them look like they’re wearing glasses 🐵🤓. Unfortunately, their cute appearance makes them highly attractive for illegal pet trade, which, along with habitat fragmentation, is causing their population to decline.
