Conservation Connection: White Cheeked Gibbon
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 15 июл 2024
- Have you met Robyn and Vilson, the two White Cheeked Gibbons at Wellington Zoo? You've probably heard them - they sing a duet every single morning!
They're arboreal, which means that they live in trees - and gibbons in the wild are becoming increasingly vulnerable due to deforestation.
Watch the video to find out how you can help make a positive difference in keeping their habitat safe!

0:05 the gibbon casually doing a cartwheel high in the air on a rope upside down.... sick
His smile was terrifying too
Agile as fuck
Do you think you could teach these monkeys how to use rhinoceroses for bulldozers?
Training for the Olympics.
I could do that too if I really wanted.....
Imagine having the strength and agility of these creatures. They're like minor superheroes.
0:06 Just casually doing a cartwheel in the air while hanging from a rope.
Carl-Richard Løberg that dude is good.
Hahahaah I just caught that!! Daaaaang!!!
They can do cartwheels in the air and we can memorize Pi to the 10th digit.
I say we win.
@@Jason-nosaJ I would say the most impressive feats of memory belongs to the computer. I would give humans creativity and ingenuity.
Wow that was crazy I didnt see that. They are masters of acrobatics
The way they move is unbelievable..They could tease anything and get away.
There’s a video of a gibbon pulling a tigers tail and running off lol
@@granth81
tiger kittens
Perhaps not fossa’s 🐅
Less than 10 seconds in and the Gibbon is casually showing off.
My friend, do you love gibbon?
I love how they hold their creepy long arms when they're on the ground
What's creepy about it when it's perfectly clear these arms are perfect in the trees where they live.
@@NuntiusLegis they are uncanny looking to humans
Never realized how long they were until you pointed them out 😭
creepy ??? really.. that's nature anatomy art ... beautiful and useful arms for that species
Creepy?
The movements and sounds of gibbons are exquisite. What charming beings!
Indeed! My farts sound the same at times!
Sc0pee Maybe a fluteless diet will help.
I saw them in the wild before.

When the lighter gibbon saw the mirror, then touched his face as if reading brail. I think they are absolutely amazing and beautiful creatures!
Gibbons are awesome

Yes you are Harry, yes you are
The way the beige one touched the lady's head. Very soft and sweet.
0:05 cartwheel on a rope!!! Look ma, no floor!
Imagine how scary these would be if they were as tall as humans?!
They'd look like Fiskerton from the Secret Saturdays.
+thørrz They would

Gibbons from Malaysia's gibbon conservation society need help! Some of their juveniles were featured in BBC's primates film and the founder has been recognized by IUCN SSA as the only Malaysian certified for 'instigating successful rescue and rehabilitation of gibbons and siamangs'. However recently the Malaysian government wildlife department (Perhilitan) raided the center twice and forcibly seized a total of 8 gibbons, leaving 4 behind. They do NOT have a warrant. There has been an ongoing court case but it is NOT finalized yet, the reason behind why they are rushing to take the gibbons is unknown, but many say it's a power move and corruption. Videos of the first raid were recorded and posted but during the second raid, the center staff were not allowed to witness the handling process. After the staff left, bloodstains were found all over the gibbon enclosure. Perhilitan refuses to tell us where the seized gibbons are brought to and show how they are doing. This is extremely alarming and the psychological trauma inflicted on the gibbons during this process can undo the years of efforts, if the gibbons manage to survive. Many of the gibbons had been paired up and being separated and treated so violently is severely stressing these highly sensitive animals out. Footages of perhilitan's own gibbon enclosure have been posted online, they were forced to live in concrete rooms, cages, and even showcased in cages surrounded by spotlights and loud traffic noises. In comparison, gibbon conservation society's gibbons live in the forest and are taken care of strictly according to IUCN's guidelines. Their work in gibbon rehabilitation is internationally recognized. The Perhilitan does not care and will not care if the public outrage does not get loud enough. We need the global community's help to save the gibbons. Not only because they include the most endangered primate species but also because they are highly sentient beings and not mere goods to be snatched around for human greed.

Local government corruption is the main culprit of many human-induced tragedies.
Die Gibbons stehen also auch schon vor ihrer Ausrottung durch den Menschen...
... wie traurig! 😣
gibbons are fucking awesome
0:06 sick cartwheel
When I'm under stress I sometimes imagine I'm a gibbon cartwheeling as I'm flying from tree to tree, without a care in the world.. Has always looked like a hell of a lot of fun to me.
Nice
Well, our ancient ancestors were probably pretty happy and relaxed living in the trees.
A small monkey grabbed my hair and pulled my head down as a child once. I still remember how shockingly strong it was despite being tiny and having seemingly skinny arms.
Gibbons shared an ancestor with humans more recently than we did with monkeys
Apes, in general, are very strong.
@@danielwalker6653
At least they, similar to us, don't have tails. Plus that they are smarter and friendlier than most monkeys. Gibbons, as one of many Apes species, are similar to our playful nature. The good thing is they are not cruel like us.
Gibbons are not monkeys
The awareness and intelligence in her understanding and implementation of love for nature's creation and the nuances with respect to the balance of earth's wonderfull creatures is next level. I respectfully love this woman and her vastly broad scope.
Completely agree!
I love gibbons they just seem like complete goofballs and all they wanna do is go fast.
Such acrobats ! Thank You for providing them with care and making people aware of the issues they face. Gorgeous animals.
"very cool sort of animal" is an understatement. the coolest animal - period
Die Gibbons sind die echten Menschen... 🎈
1:15 my first thought was that this was a human running on the rope.
These animals are incredibly agile.
Gibbon did an upside down cart wheel on the rope. lol
Baghuu
That cartwheel tho...
I wonder if any human can do it?
He was too smooth with it
Gondwana Not without prehensile toes.
It could potentially be done by arching your foot over the rope.
tht’s clean af
Omg didn't know they existed how beautiful and intelligent they are singing
Gibbon-“spider man has nothing on me”
The way he walked that rope hands free is nothing short of incredible to watch.
You are so lucky to have them in your life! I am amazed and in awe! Thank you for the video♥
"One of the troubles that face the gibbons."
Vilson, from the background: "NOT TIGHTROPE WALKING."
Gibbons are very interesting, it's cool how some apes have long arms and others have long legs
imagine how boring the world would be without all these crazy animals
They are very gentle and sweet. They are obviously very happy there too, singing away 😊.
Haha! I love how the male sounds like those wand metal detector things used at airports at 1:09
Thumbs up if gibbons are your favorite ape.
+Brandon Hardesty Likewise, Comrade. I love ALL animals.
+Dennis Taylor i love all living things
+Dennis Taylor Orangutans personal favorite.
Venting Show Orangutans are my second.
Dennis Taylor Ever seen Orangutan Island? Loved that show until Animal Planet cancelled it :(
Wow they're pretty awesome, thank you for the peek into their lives and your devotion to these beautiful creatures.
They are just the cutest and funniest of the apes, love gibbons, so cheeky and animated.
Gibbons are so beautiful and tiny and aerial and graceful and musical and playful , they are like the ape equivalent of the Faerie Folk of European folklore
gibbons are amazing i love how they move and to hear gibbonsong
What I love about Gibbons is when they run on two legs, they look like Jack Sparrow
I like them because they are extremely athletic and can do incredible gymnastics with the trees and ropes.
I guess the keeper had an eye booger at 1:06.
Gibbons are so cool they all seem to be playful and tbey sure can move fast.
The hand eye coordination is astonishing the speed in which they move makes it looks effortless
I love that they seem to express themselves through facial expressions, all being with all breath have souls, don't you forget it ppl.
Thanks! I will keep a look out for the FSC label.
I'm on a Gibbon video spree right now. They are awesome
When you see kindness towards animals you feel happy.
Gibbons are my favourite animal. I want to build a giant gibbon playground one day and have 70 of them as my pets and best friends
they're so playful haha so cute
0:31 Jacqui's a keeper, that's for sure
On My mama 😌
Stg
Cheers to dudes not chasing wap-ers
Gibbons are so cute! I weirdly love their body proportions too lol, the long arms and short legs.
I love how despite their long arms, they always walk on two legs.
I love these two.....BEAUTIFUL
Cool creatures
What beautiful animals, such sweet songs! I wish I could swing with such ease among branches!
They are lovely. I met them on youtube durìng the quarantine. Amazing animals. :)
These guys have always been my favorite,
It did a cartwheel swing at the beginning!!!
I love gibbons they're so cute
This is very nice. Thanks for sharing. And 10 years ago!
Omg I wanna hug em 😂 these guys are amazing
I love watching them. The Gibbons have a personality all their own. They seem so intelligent and versatile. They are one of Gods creations that over takes my imagination. So beautiful, so amazing. Gods has created. A wonderful creature in the Gibbons.
They have evolved over time into a primate best suited for the habitat they exist in.
@@suchasin fr
Evolution would like to talk with you.
Jacqui is my favorite Gibbon trainer.
Gibbons are so precious!
Go Wellington Zoo! We loved our visit and spent most a day there
1:14 😂
Kakashi has a new student😂😂😂
That arm haha
when i was in primary school i used to believe i was part gibbon and i'd swing around on the monkeybars just like them lmao
unori Gina l lol 😂
When she was trying to get your eye crusty out I about died.
They are so fun to watch! So fast!
If they boxed their jab would give u nightmares
They sound like balloons when you slowly open the bottom and it mAkes high pitch noises
Worked with Robyn at Perth, she is just divine 💕
They are kind of like a sloth / primate ! The arms and build! I love them!
0:07 Did that muthafucka just do a cartwheel upside-down on a rope!?!?! lmao
chewface Ikr. Didn't even slow down.
Right from the start of the video it does a upside down cartwheel which I didn't know was possible.
I think they must be one of my favourite animals.
Spider-Man: I'm the king of swinging!
Gibbon: Hold my banana!
i am blaming joe sugg for this gibbon marathon
loving every single video so far
Beautiful. You guys do a wonderful job.
That cartwheel at the start! My god that is awesome
0:26 - Robin is a bad, bad girl. LOL!

I love the Gibbons style!!
The yellow one, what a long hands
beautiful creatures
You are gibbon me smiles. I would cuddle those things for days
Very nice place for this Gibbon they got very long arms and legs they very good clean animals thank you for sharing,
I would like to see a trained gibbon on the show "Ninja Warrior"
A special episode of American Ninja Warrior, featuring a trained gibbon vs Spiderman. Who would win? :D
@@AStageForTheKingdom Spider-Man is fictional, so a trained gibbon would win.
@@EmptyMan000 - they proba ly meant one of the stunt-trained actors :/
@@EmptyMan000 spiderman isn't real?
@@EmptyMan000 Spider-Man is real, you fool!
1:14 to 1:16 that is amazing
I can watch them whole day ....
gibbons are truly the king of swing...their ability to jump among the trees is a wonder of nature
Their movements are so graceful
0:05 if i could do a cartwheel while hanging from a rope i would be blown away these gibbons are my favorite apes. i wish i could have one as a pet cuz they’re ninjas!
They really are both amazing and very 😍 cute. There are a few at Oakland Zoo near me and they are always a crowd favorite 🤗!
@@Tricia1869 lol i saw a guy that has one as a pet and it runs around his house on 2 legs with its long ass arms straight up in the air its the funniest shit i've ever seen!
It's all fun and games until a hedgehog shows up...
Gibbons are so cute with their eyes and faces even if their adults
Wow. She is a keeper.
They actually look like humans, because they have no tail. Just saying.
Yea so they have to walk more like us too.
Roseller Simbulan They're actually better looking than me
Roseller Simbulan My dog has no tail does he look human now?
They do
Yes it Like human
I really like gibbon. Gibbons are so awesome.
