Monkey Business Video (Remixed)

We watched these monkeys eat pink flowers all around McLeod Ganj,Dharamsala. They are very graceful and much nicer to watch than the common monkey you see all over India.
The langur monkey is called a 'leaf monkey' because it eats chiefly leaves. The large stomachs and intestines of these monkeys give them a potbellied appearance. They also eat fruit,flowers,and grass.

The langur monkey has a slender body, with a long tail. It's coat may be red, brown, silver, gray, golden, or black so it can blend in with it's habitat. The adult langur weighs from 11 to 40 pounds. It measures 17 to 31 inches tall, and it's tail is 21 to 42 inches long. Male langurs are larger then females.

The langurs live in warm, humid swamp forests to cold mountains. They live in groups from 10 to 40 members. The langur can jump 10 meters which is about 30 feet. They can also jump over rivers when they need to because they cannot swim.
