Walking the line This group of Dusky Leaf Monkey - Trachypithecus obscurus lives in secondary forest near to residential area. They often come down to the residential area to feed in fruiting trees planted by residents. Some seasonal fruiting trees like Rambutans can be a favourite among them and they can be seen visiting the same trees regularly over a period of time, usually in the morning and late afternoon. They moves easily from place to place and crossing roads safely by walking on electrical wires. Dusky Leaf Monkey,Malaysia,Monkey,Penang,Tanjung Bungah,Trachypithecus obscurus Click/tap to enlarge

        1. Yes, I do check that map from time to time :D
          Will clear that few and set country to Malaysia, cos those few were located in a small atoll in South China Sea and the location map doesn't read it as Malaysia, but I can't remove that, can you help to remove it and set country to Malaysia?
