Summary
[edit]_(2854998654).jpg&action=edit§ion=1){kind=link}
| Description | This territory is marked by a whooping, piercing "song," which broadcasts precise information on the species and sex of individuals, the area occupied by the adults and the presence of sub-adults ready to form a new pair. A different bark-like call is used to warm troop members of danger. With a keen sense of hearing and their agility in the trees, they are equipped to avoid the leopards, birds of prey and snakes who hunt them. A single offspring is born after a seven month gestation period. The young clings to the mother night and day, developing slowly. At six months, it begins to brachiate and only later learns to walk. When the animal reaches sexual maturity in 6-10 years, it meets other gibbons in common feeding grounds, where after courtship, new family groups are formed. |
