Can Gibbon Mother Save Her Baby From Dangerous Brother? Part Two | Nature Bites

Baby Silvery Gibbon Rayya just wants to follow in her brother's footsteps - but when she climbs too high, it puts her in danger. Will her mother be able to save her in time?
A silvery gibbon’s time is spent scaling the rainforest tree tops foraging for fruit and leaves. The small family groups move quietly through the canopy and a moving branch or falling piece of fruit is usually the only sign they’re above!
Silvery gibbons are quite vocal using their loud calls to mark their territories and protect their borders from neighbouring groups. They have varied vocalisations for communicating to each other and they’re the only gibbon species that don’t sing in duets.
Family groups consist of several juveniles with mature offspring eventually leaving the family to find their own territories.
Female silvery gibbons come into their Estrous cycles at any time of the year - these Lesser Apes do not have a breeding season. After a 7 - 8 month gestation period, a single young is usually born and stays with the family around 8 years.

So are we going to mention that Airbus Beluga, one of the rarest planes in the world, casually flying over in the background at the start of the vid

[@Mr.Thermistor7228]

WHAT THE F****!!!! that is absolutely amazing that its flying by this video! seriously im in shock like the chances of that!! ive got to assume that wasnt planned and doubt that the film crew knew about it? the chances of just happening to film it flying by are incomprehensibly small wow thats unbelievable

[@Mr.Thermistor7228]

Nature Bites can you give us some insight about the Airbus Beluga photobombing at the start, did you guys know about it and knew to get that glorious shot?? or do you guys even have no clue that it happened as well and just happened to film that?? the chances of the later are mind boggling borderline impossible that it happened and if so that needs some serious recognition hahaha we would love to know!

[@AndyScar2030]

Right on cool video!!😊

That baby monkey screams funny when the bigger one was biting it and being rough with it.

[@Franz19970]
