the beard-monkey or Wanderu lives Ghats in Asia's areas, that the most clearly are opposite the African coast so to speak, in the westerns in India's southwest.
Shape its English name "Löwenschwänziger Makak" marks the lion-good impression this brilliantly black monkey right. Also the light-gray mane, this, of the forehead is coming unmistakably, the face frames and runs out under the chin in a long, two-corner-y "intoxication-beard."
This monkey, who doesn't have any relative similar to confusing, becomes long until 60 cm and possesses one until tassel-tail long to 38 cm. The females against it are smaller.
Way of life The Wanderu lives in it writes poetry, evergreen and as lonesome as possible jungle between 600-1100 m of height. The dusky darkness of this habitat, it is on very well tried with its black fur. In troops of 10-20 animals, it moves slowly and deliberately through the treetops, with what routes frequently are one-pushed at the ground at intervals. In its home, beard-monkeys are regarded as extremely shy natures.
Endangering Because of the wild acquisition of land of the human being and the destruction of the jungle interconnected with it, the habitat of the beard-monkey shrank very strongly so that the Wanderu belongs to the endangered types of animal today.
