Cincinnati Zoo - Baby Gibbon

July 2008.

wow, how many gibbon species do they have?

There are four species of gibbon. There are Mueller's and siamangs on their own islands, plus white-handed in with the sumatran orangutans. I didn't label this photo because I'm not 100% sure which species they are. It's hugely impressive to have 4 species of gibbon plus gorillas, orangutans and bonbos all at the same zoo.

According to ISIS these are Buff-cheeked Gibbons.

Thanks for checking Mario. I bet that there aren't that many North American zoos with 4 different species of gibbon.

I can't really think of any other zoo that have more than 2 gibbon species.

Columbus might?..have more than 2 species.

Cute little boogers arent they? Good photo!
