    I just LOVE the sound when Gibbons sing. It's so incredible.

      Isn't it? They are my daughter's favorite species of monkey. She's got several recordings of their "singing" as ring tones on her phone.
      Just the other day my daughter played each one and they all are different. You don't notice by watching them, but you do when you listen to the individual voice recordings. It makes you wonder what they are saying to each other. ☺️

      Yes they are beautiful to hear and observe in the right circumstances. But as this and the previous episode so vividly shows, they are nearly as dangerous to each other and humans as Chimpanzees are. If they don't fear humans they have savagely long canines and are so fast moving real damage can result. And remember what their lovely singing is for: "This is my territory! We are big and strong so beware!"

    All they need to chase away the wild Gibbons who are attacking and harassing the caged Gibbons who are being rehabilitated, are pepper ball guns. They are air powered and shoot little balls of pepper spray that burst on impact. A couple of experiences with those and they'll likely keep their distance. If by chance it isn't enough, they can pair it with electric fencing all around the cages. They HATE the electric fences. Both are non-lethal and won't hurt them, but will make them uncomfortable enough to be motivated to stay away.

    Maybe they need to tranquilize the wild female gibbon and keep her and the other wild gibbons off to themselves in another part of the park so that they cannot get back to the ones in the cages otherwise more could be in danger. People have caused too much damage to the planet, the animals and the environment, so when these things happen it is the people who should be held responsible for the problems.

      And that's the problem Freda.
      Everytime humans put their hands on anything it comes out in even worse shape.
      Humans have a way of destroying everything touched by their hands.
      For those particular gibbons, being in the enclosure is a two sided coin. On the one side you have them at ready access to monitor and treat any problems to keep them in healthy form, while planning the move for them. On the other side, they are sitting ducks for that rogue female and her troop.
      You make valid points, but I feel it just isn't prudent for more human interaction.
      This is a conundrum that will take an "aha! moment"
      I trust Dr. Cronin though. If anything, like what you suggest, can be done she will handle it properly.
      We certainly need more like her group in this world, don't you agree?

      She's trying to exert her status in the hierarchy. To that female there is no room for strangers. That she was a captive, then released monkey gives her an edge, and I would say she has zero tolerance for anybody she seems an interloper.
      She has no fear of humans, and is adamant about getting to and eliminating those unwelcome strangers.
      She's not really crazy per se, but I'd making an attempt to keep her troop in order.
      I found her to be scary myself. And when I saw Dr. Cronin jump back I knew that the wild female was a formidable threat.
      I find them fascinating, and wish people would let them be the beautiful wild animals they were born to be.
      They have a valuable reason to be in this earth, and it's a shame that their environment is steadily ceasing to be their own.

      ​@@laurenelizabeth8585 you're right. Moves can sometimes take months and months of planning before any primate is moved and released. Food source needs to be checked for one thing, and making sure no other gibbons are in an area that could be suitable for a gibbon release, there are many things to plan and check out.

That's how.....she can then pull their arm outside the mesh and just rip that arm apart or bite any other part of the body up against the cage without the other animal even being able to defend themselves because they're stuck behind a fence.
