Siamang mother and young

Again, apologies for the built environment. I startled the group when I emerged from the apartment. This mama crossed the parking lot to get to the forest, with baby at the hip.

The siamang is a tailless, arboreal, black-furred gibbon native to the forests of Malaysia, Thailand, and Sumatra. The largest of the lesser apes, the siamang can be twice the size of other gibbons, reaching 1 m in height, and weighing up to 14 kg. The siamang is the only species in the genus "Symphalangus".
