The Canopy- Javan langurs

Not officially on diaply yet. Taken around 2 weeks ago, this was the first time the langurs were released into the canopy. At that period of time they were charging at several staff that were not keepers.
 
I wonder if they got into a fight with the Douc Langurs? A couple of the Doucs had scratches on their faces on the park's opening day.
 
Is the 'Canopy' zone exhibit a free ranging area for the douc langurs and the javan langurs who share the same space along with the spotted deer?
 
@aw_101 The Canopy is a walk-in enclosure that has Siamangs, Doucs, Javan langurs, and Philippine Spotted Deer. The path is an elevated walkway. The Siamangs are separated by an electric fence along the ground, while the deer and langurs share the same area. From my talk with the keeper today, it appears that the Javan Langurs will not be in there at the same time as the Doucs, but will be rotated at different times of the day. It might have to do with the Javan langur being rather aggressive.
