Here again is Dianne, now 10 days older than the previous video. She is 34 days old and still incredibly cute.She is a silver leaf langur monkey baby, seen here in the San Diego Zoo Children's Nursery.
About: The babies have orange fur, the adults become dark silver gray. They are from Sumatra, Borneo and Mayalsia. They eat lots of leaves, (herbivores), and have a three chambered stomach like ruminants (I think that is cows?) that ferments and helps digest all the cellulose from the tough leaves. They also have extra long intestines. They eat a small amount of berries and fruits, but mostly leaves. They live high up in the canopy.
We are lucky to have these at this incredible zoo.
