Francois’ Langur (Tonkin leaf monkey) - Presbytis francoisi
The langur lives in groups consisting of one alpha male, four to six females, and several young. These monkeys are about two feet tall, plus their long tails. They live in jungles near caves and cliffs as high as 100 feet. Langurs yell to scare off other groups, or to warn of a change in weather.
Interesting fact: Mature langurs are black and gray, but the infants are bright orange!

 

 

Clouded Leopard - Neofelis nebulosa
Clouded leopards are a different species than the common leopard and snow leopard. Their coats have cloud-like spots instead of the patterns seen on other types of leopards. Clouded leopards are some of the best climbers in the cat family. They can hang from branches by their hind feet, and climb down trees headfirst. Clouded leopards also have longer teeth than any other big cat their size.
Interesting fact: A clouded leopard’s tail can be up to three feet long, the same length as the rest of its body!

 

 

Howler Monkey - Alouatta caraya
There can be as many as twenty howler monkeys in a troop. When resting, the monkey’s tail is always tightly curled around a branch. They tend to avoid long leaps from tree branches, but they can leap as far as fifteen feet if they want to.

Interesting fact: The howler monkey is the loudest land animal. Its call can be heard up to three miles away.

 

 

Serval – Leptailurus Serval
The serval is like a cat on stilts. It has very long legs and can jump up to ten feet in the air. Servals come from Africa, and usually hunt wild rodents and reptiles. They have been seen hunting flamingos from time to time.
Interesting fact: A serval will eat around 4,000 rodents in a year, which is actually a benefit to human farmers.
