[@mhan6648]

baby monkey managed to handle all this tough moments such as hitting the water surface from very high distance and breathing under water while clinging on mother. Amazing nature

[@sebasstein7014]

Its not a fish, it would die breathing under water. Probably has just like humans babies a reflex to not breath when they are submerged in water. Babys have that reflex because it was similar when they were in the womb. This prevents babies to get water into their lungs and stops them from drowning (Obviously only as long as they have enough oxygen and aren`t submerged for multiple minutes)

hey just wanted to say that my friend Adam has recently found out about these Proboscis monkeys and he has autism and his fascination with them have really helped give him something to focus on and be exited to learn about with all the covid stuff happening, he even has a stuffed one that he sleeps with and if hes having any kind of stress issues he just watches a video about these guys :)

Awesome documentary about proboscis monkeys. You also can see extremely rare primate species in.Vietnam. Our Primate Wildlife Tour in Vietnam in Oct/2023 was organised by Vietnam Eco-Tours. We luckily met red shanked douc, Cat Ba Langurs, delacour langur, pygmy slow loris etc. The local ecoguide Vietnam, Luc Nguyen, was really excellent. Our next trip will be a Photography Birding Tour Vietnam with Vietnam Eco-Tours. Can't wait for it 🦬🐒🦚🐸🐊🦋🐛🦠🐵🐒
