“You know I don’t need a fancy vacation. I would be happy with a trip to the bathroom alone.”
Hands up if you can relate. 😆✋

The silvery langur, or silvery lutung, is an arboreal old world monkey found in mangroves, coastal, and riverine forests throughout Sumatra, Peninsular Malaysia, and Borneo. While they have dark brown to black fur and grey tips (which gives them a silvery appearance), they are born with orange fur and hairless white skin on their face, feet, and hands. Their fur stays bright orange and doesn’t develop into their characteristic silver-tipped locks until about 3 to 5 months old. This bright colour helps mothers spot them in the forest and also helps protect them from predators as they are often colourblind and mistake orange for green.

#MammalMonday we are highlighting one of the most interesting and unique gliding mammals found in our forests. The colugo's body is covered with a large membrane of skin, or patagium, much like a bat. However their fur-covered membrane extends from their face to the tips of its claws and tail, they even have webbed toes and fingers. This beautifully evolved body gives colugos the ability to glide an incredible distance up to 70 meters from tree to tree and has earned the colugo the title of the most accomplished mammalian glider on earth. They are completely arboreal, nocturnal, shy, and solitary animals found in tropical rainforests in South East Asia. Their large eyes allow for strong night vision and depth perception and they have a set of long tiny teeth much like a comb that allow them to clean parasites from their fur. This big eyed creature has a uniquely coloured yellow-brown coat and is only found near the coast in Borneo.

Tips on wildlife observation:
Do your research on the wildlife before going to the location. Find out what creatures you can expect to see, and find out a little bit about them. Pay special attention to information about their daily lives and behaviour. It takes patience and time to see rare animals and birds exhibiting unusual behaviour. Wildlife observation is such a fun learning experience for people of all ages.
