The Silvery Langur of Bako National Park.

We were excited to stumble upon a family of timid silvery langur. At first, we were worried if the monkeys gonna snatch our lunch like that the long-tailed macaque, turn out they didn't. They still eat whatever they eat in the wild.

Silvery langur is Old World monkeys and there are several different species of them. They live in family of harem with size up to 40 individuals, with one dominant male and a lots of mommies. Silvery langur babies born with orangey fur and white skin and it slowly turn darker to adult coloration when growing up.

As you can see in the video, there's a particular monkey that seems comfortable around human, we think he's the dominant male, and I call him Mr Ambassador.
