The lar gibbon also known as the white handed gibbon is an endangered primate in the gibbon family, Hylobatidae which is native throughout Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, China, Myanmar, Burma, Thailand, and Northern Sumatra. They sport the largest contiguous range of any gibbon species and typically inhabit lowland and submontane rainforest, mixed deciduous bamboo forest, and seasonal evergreen forest.They are a diurnal, arboreal, and social species which lives in familial groups comprised of a mated pair or polyandrous group and there young offspring which often communicate via there loud & distinctive calls. The diet is comprised mostly of fruit, leaves, flowers, vines, insects, and eggs. Lar gibbons are themselves eaten by tigers, clouded leopards, marbled cats, crested serpent eagles, and reticulated pythons. Both sexes reach around 16 – 24in (41 -61cms) in head to body length and 8-17lbs (3.6 -7.7kg) in weight. As gibbons they are true brachiators, propelling themselves through the forest by swinging under the branches using their arms. Reflecting this mode of locomotion, the lar gibbon has curved fingers, elongated hands, extremely long arms and relatively short legs. The fur of this animal can vary from dark brown to ginger, tan, or cream in coloration. Its face is black, with a distinct white ring of hair around it. Its hands and feet are also white. Mating may occur year round but typically peaks during the dry season around March, after a 6-7 month pregnancy a mother lar gibbon will give birth to a single baby. For the first 4 to 6 months of its life, the infant is nursed and carried around by its mother. She then carries it around less and less, and it begins eating solid food, before becoming fully weaned by 2 years old. After weaning it is primarily cared for by its older siblings, and after 3 years it in turn starts caring for its younger siblings as well. Lar gibbons reach sexual maturity between 6 to 9 years of age at which point they leave there familial group in search of mates. Under ideal conditions a lar gibbon may live upwards of 25 years.

Lar gibbon (Hylobates lar)
Gibbons are known as the lesser apes, and like great apes lack an external tail. They are experts at brachiation- swinging from branch to branch- and are today all found in Southeast Asia.
Lar gibbons are found in the canopy of tropical forests from Myanmar in the north to Indonesia in the south. They eat fruit, leaves, flowers, and insects. Unusually, they come in a variety of colours, from dark brown to light tan. Lar gibbons are known for their haunting calls, duets performed between pairs at sunrise.

Brian the gibbon is 60! Born in 1963 at the London Zoo, Brian now lives at the Lake District Wildlife Park with his children Nobby and Sally. To celebrate he will have treats, enrichment gifts, and visitors can make birthday cards for him to enjoy. The average lifespan of gibbons in captivity is mid 40s, so Brian is really knocking it out of the park in terms of a long and active life. Happy birthday Brian!
