This gorgeous orphan langur baby is a blac-shanked douc langur, a critically endangered species. His parents were killed by poachers, and luckily the babe was found and transfered to the care of the Cu Chi Wildlife Rescue Centre outside Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. This centre is a joint project of Wildlife at Risk and the Forest Protection Department. It's encouraging to see such a well-run facility in a place where cruelty to animals abounds.
