Happy Chinese New Year 2016

Our precious Dusky Langurs Trachypithecus obscurus or Dusky Leaf Monkeys are herbivorous primate that can be found in the lowland rainforest, plantations or the edge of the forest of Langkawi. They are locally known as "Lutung". They are generally shy. If you wish to get close to watch or photograph them, do approach them gently. Please refrain from feeding any monkeys on this island. During this time of the year, you may have the opportunity to spot newborn Dusky Langurs which are bright orange in colour.
