Sleepy douc using red-shank headrest for a nap
The doucs are a family of monkeys often associated with langurs, and is referred to as costume monkeys. They are the most colourful monkeys there are, this one with red shanks, blue and grey fur, yellow-red face and blueish "eye-makeup".
Critical conditions
The doucs are all native to Indochine, the red shanks doucs are native to PR Laos, Viet Nam and northern Cambodia. They are critically endangered, hunted for medicin, food and glue-production. And, being tree-dwellers, human building projects involving removing forest and jungle.
During the hottest hours of the day they seek together and sleeps until the temperature is cooler for having fun, the food and party.
I can totally relate to that.

Red-shanked douc (Pygathrix nemaeus)
This fabulous-looking species is found in tropical, sometimes mountainous forests of Southeast Asia. They eat mostly leaves, and have a multi-chambered stomach which allows them to ferment their food, like a ruminant!

The first set of polls will go up as soon as I have finished writing the descriptions! In the meantime, I would appreciate if you could share this tournament around- it won’t be much of a tournament if there aren’t that many people voting! In going down the research rabbit hole I’ve found so many interesting species and stories, and I promise learning about them here will be worth your time!

The past is already gone. The future is not yet here. Look deeply at life in the here and now. —Gautama Buddha
Red-Shanked Douc (Pygathrix nemaeus)
Laos, Vietnam, Cambodia
Status: Critically Endangered
Threats: illegal trade and hunting, habitat fragmentation
-----
Here's your monkey!! Thanks for getting me past 100 followers, and welcome to all new followers! 💚
I found these doucs the other day while looking at other species in Vietnam. These are officially my favorite monkey now!!* I am in love with their angelic faces. I feel like they must all be ascended buddhas with their childlike but ageless faces (even their behavior is peaceful compared to other species), so I looked for a buddha quote as the caption today.
I realized I want my blog to reflect this spirit. When thinking about endangered species, it can be too easy to despair about both the future and the past. But I just want to show the beauty** of what we have today.
(*I don't believe I had a favorite monkey before, but I do now.)
(**And that includes the weirdos!)
