Red-shanked douc langur: A touch of nature on the green peninsula

NDO - People who are fascinated by the beauty of the red-shanked douc langurs often make an appointment to visit Son Tra Peninsula (Da Nang City) every year in early April, when the weather is cool and the forest changes its color. This is also the time when the "queen of primates" often moves to the lowlands, enjoying the fresh young leaves that nature gives at the change of seasons.

Sunset is the ideal time to see flocks of langurs eating leaves along the roadside on Son Tra peninsula.

Red-shanked douc langurs live in individual families, with only one adult male, 2-3 females and their young.

The red-shanked douc is a leaf-eating monkey, but occasionally it will eat fruit or seeds depending on the season.

At this time, langurs often find their way to trees near the road on Son Tra peninsula. Just pay attention and visitors can easily see them.
