China Daily, Beijing, January 23rd (Reporter Yan Dongjie, Yang Jun) In Tongren, Guizhou, there are two very rare monkeys-Guizhou golden monkey and langur.
Guizhou golden monkey IUCN is listed as an endangered species, and the global population is only about 800, and all of them live in Fanjingshan National Nature Reserve.
There are more than 2,000 langurs in the world, and about one third of them live in Mayanghe National Nature Reserve.
With the protection of ecological environment of Fanjing Mountain and Mayang River in Tongren, Guizhou, the population of these two kinds of national first-class protected wild animals is increasing, and tourists often encounter them on hiking trails and even beside Panshan Highway.
Guizhou golden monkey is a descendant of the ancestors of Sichuan golden monkey and Yunnan golden monkey. Although it is also one of the five golden monkeys in the world, the hair of adult Guizhou golden monkey is not golden, but mainly black and gray.
However, when the baby of Guizhou golden monkey was born, the whole body was golden yellow. Therefore, in the summer season of Guizhou golden monkey reproduction, you can see the female monkey holding the golden cub in Fanjing Mountain, which is very cute.
Baby langurs are also golden. About one year old, their backs will turn black, and a bunch of black "mohicans" hair on their heads is a typical feature of langurs.
Their fingers are slender and powerful, and they can not only wander around trees flexibly like other primates, but also climb rock walls and live in caves at night. Therefore, the karst landform of Mayanghe Nature Reserve in Tongren Tujia Autonomous County along the river in Guizhou Province has become an ideal home for them to settle down.
Through the charts and videos of Guizhou langur and Guizhou golden monkey in green China, you can definitely identify these two precious wild monkeys at a glance when you come to the nature reserve next time.
