State of Langur Species in American Zoos

[zooboy28]

Hey there!

I have recently joined zoo chat as I am currently studying at Taronga Zoo and am very keen on gathering, seeing, talking about animal info.

As I'm not entirely sure on how to navigete the site yet, I was wondering if someone could help me with some infor mation that I am finding hard to find, for an assessment I am doing?

It is on the Francois' Langur.... I have found loads of information about them in the wild eyc, but I need to find out more about their captive living situations in other captive animal institutes over the world. I can't seem to find such information, perhaps I am looking in the wrong places??

Can someone please point me in the right direction as to where this information may be founf?

Kindest regards.

Welcome to ZooChat.

I imagine the keepers at Taronga would have information about how they are managed, including at other zoos? If you know what other zoos have Francois Langurs, you could try contacting them directly, or the studbook manager?

Have you searched online journal article databases for information - they might have some. You could widen your search to look at other Langurs, might get some useful references from that.
