Book Synopsis Proboscis Monkeys Of Borneo by : Govindasamy Agoramoorthy
Download or read book Proboscis Monkeys Of Borneo written by Govindasamy Agoramoorthy and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2013 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Proboscis monkey is a fascinating primate and it is found only on the tropical island of Borneo in Southeast Asia. The wild populations are often restricted to coastal rainforest, mangrove forest and riverine forest. They feed on the naturally-occurring leaves and fruits from the forest. Little is know about their population dynamics, ecology and social behavior. Besides, it is not all that easy to keep them alive in captivity due to their specialized leafy diet. Only a few zoos in Asia display these rare monkeys. The author, an international primatologist with three decades of field research experience, has studied these amazing monkeys, both in the wild (in-situ) and in captivity (ex-situ). In this monograph, the author has synthesized his scientific research on proboscis monkeys in the wild and in zoo setting with details on population, ecology, behavior, conservation and management. Therefore this monograph should serve as an introductory and reference text on primatology and animal behavior related courses in colleges, universities and institutes of higher learning globally.

Book Synopsis The Proboscis Monkey by : Tanya Turner
Download or read book The Proboscis Monkey written by Tanya Turner and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-02-10 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Proboscis Monkey is a rare and one-of-a-kind species. Proboscis Monkey is different from the other types of monkeys because it has a very special trait - it has a long nose (a proboscis nose is a long nose). This monkey's nose is so long, in fact, it is also called the "long-nosed monkey." The Proboscis Monkey is a large species of monkey. The males usually measure anywhere from 26 to 35 inches in length - and that measurement only applies to their head and body measurement (they have very long tails, as well). Males of this size weigh about 35 to 60 pounds - so a typical male Proboscis Monkey can be the size and weight of a small child. You can find Proboscis Monkeys in Borneo, Brunei, Malaysia, and Indonesia. They live in forests and plantations and areas where there are bodies of water. Excited to learn more about the Proboscis Monkey? Get a copy of this book and discover more fascinating information about this animal.
Book Synopsis Conservation of the Proboscis Monkey and the Orangutan in Borneo by : Clement Allan Tisdell
Download or read book Conservation of the Proboscis Monkey and the Orangutan in Borneo written by Clement Allan Tisdell and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 25 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Concentrating on their presence in Borneo, the ecology and conservation of two large Southeast Asian primates, the orangutan (Pongo pygmaeus) and the proboscis monkey (Nasalis larvatus) are reviewed. The former species occurs only in Borneo and Sumatra and the latter only in Borneo. The comparative threats facing these two endangered primates and their approximate numbers in the wild are put into perspective. The long-term survival of both species is adversely affected by the degradation and conversion of their suitable forest habitat by logging and agriculture, the occurrence of hunting and poaching, and forest fires. The effectiveness of measures to conserve these species are discussed and evaluated from the standpoint of economics. It is concluded that informed assessment of the opportunity costs of conserving these species and their habitat is required and better incentives for law enforcement must be created. Properly regulated ecotourism may draw the necessary attention to the plight of these species and may even help fund conservation research. Economics can help identify least, or low, cost opportunities for conserving species as is demonstrated in this article, even if it is not always possible to demonstrate their economic value convincingly.

I loved it!" - Howard Rosenberg, Pulitzer Prize winning former Los Angeles Times columnist and author. If you think a conversation with God couldn't possibly be FUNNY, you're in for a very BIG surprise! Brooke Jones, Breast Cancer Warrior, Political Satirist, and former star of San Francisco and Los Angeles radio died...but her death was short-lived. 8 minutes passed here on Earth while she was busy being dead, but she wasn't on Earth - she was at Heaven's Front Door, having a Question and Answer Session with God! "What is the meaning of life?" "What religion is God?" "Is God male or female?" Brooke asked every question she could think of, and God provided the answers. The first thing she learned was that God has a sense of humor! (Well of course God has a sense of humor - have you ever seen a Platypus?) Was she returned to the Land Of The Living because of the startling final question she asked? Did all that she experienced really happen, or was it just the hallucination of a dying brain? She didn't know, until...she was given proof - absolute proof - proof she could not possibly deny! 'Why Are There Monkeys? (and other questions for God)" is the absolutely TRUE, INSPIRATIONAL, laugh-out-loud FUNNY story of one woman's Near-Death Question and Answer Session with God.

It left me, an atheist, more of a believer than I was before. I loved every minute of it!" - Ray Richmond, former columnist with The Hollywood Reporter, Daily Variety, Orange County Register, LA Herald Examiner.
Download or read book Monkey Moments written by Ghazally Ismail and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2021-10-22 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An enthralling book on monkeys and apes of the rainforests. Fascinating facts about several primate species are reflected and appealingly narrated from experiential encounters in the wilderness of Borneo. The author brilliantly takes readers through the evolution of man by selectively highlighting the physical features and behavioural biology of the species discussed in the book. Unprecedented destructions of the rainforests have driven countless animal and plant species to the brink of extinction, including monkeys and apes. Immediate and effective conservation of the rainforest habitats remain their last hope. In this book, the author is advocating mindful approaches to saving these endangered species from disappearing forever. Evolutionarily, we need to recognise the unique commonality between us humans and the primates. The connectedness goes beyond the evolution of morphological changes and adaptable features. We also share the genesis of learning behaviour and building of culture. Additionally, the book is delightfully illustrated with drawings by the author himself as he reveals the science of nature through the eyes of a naturalist.
