Thank you Ituri for the quick responce, now i understand. Still it is really sad, this is an endangered species, and a magnificent primate, hopefully other zoos in the world can keep this species with better results.

What about singapore zoo do you know if they hold them?

Well, according to ISIS, Signapore Zoo has 8.7 Douc Langurs.

Also, if you want to see douc langurs, you should go to Philadelphia Zoo as they still have 1.1 on display.
 
I have heard of many successes coming out of Singapore regarding Doucs. We might not be able to save them in the US, but I hear they are doing very well in their zoos.
 
It seems that Cologne are also getting the hang of it, so maybe it is possible to set up af European population of doucs. Just maybe...
 
@Toddy: So sad that cologne phases out the doucs.
One more species which is lost in western zoos...
 
SDZ did have 2 females off exhibit, but one died and then other was recntly transferred to Philadelphia Zoo and now lives with there mother/son pair (The mother is also from SDZ)
