Conservation Connection: White Cheeked Gibbon

- 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.....
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
Imagine having the strength and agility of these creatures. They're like minor superheroes.
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 🐅
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?
Less than 10 seconds in and the Gibbon is casually showing off.
My friend, do you love gibbon?
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.

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! 😣
When the lighter gibbon saw the mirror, then touched his face as if reading brail. I think they are absolutely amazing and beautiful creatures!
I love gibbons they just seem like complete goofballs and all they wanna do is go fast.
The way the beige one touched the lady's head. Very soft and sweet.
gibbons are fucking awesome
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
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
Eric DeVito lol
Eric Devito. Dumbest most racist comment ever!!
xDDD
0:06 sick cartwheel
These animals are incredibly agile.
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 :(
0:05 cartwheel on a rope!!! Look ma, no floor!
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.
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!
1:15 my first thought was that this was a human running on the rope.
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
Such acrobats ! Thank You for providing them with care and making people aware of the issues they face. Gorgeous animals.
Gibbon did an upside down cart wheel on the rope. lol
Baghuu
Omg didn't know they existed how beautiful and intelligent they are singing
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
"very cool sort of animal" is an understatement. the coolest animal - period
Die Gibbons sind die echten Menschen... 🎈
"One of the troubles that face the gibbons."
Vilson, from the background: "NOT TIGHTROPE WALKING."
Wow they're pretty awesome, thank you for the peek into their lives and your devotion to these beautiful creatures.
I like them because they are extremely athletic and can do incredible gymnastics with the trees and ropes.
They are very gentle and sweet. They are obviously very happy there too, singing away 😊.
You are so lucky to have them in your life! I am amazed and in awe! Thank you for the video♥
gibbons are amazing i love how they move and to hear gibbonsong
0:31 Jacqui's a keeper, that's for sure
On My mama 😌
Stg
Cheers to dudes not chasing wap-ers
Gibbons are very interesting, it's cool how some apes have long arms and others have long legs
Haha! I love how the male sounds like those wand metal detector things used at airports at 1:09
I guess the keeper had an eye booger at 1:06.
When you see kindness towards animals you feel happy.
I love that they seem to express themselves through facial expressions, all being with all breath have souls, don't you forget it ppl.
1:14 😂
Kakashi has a new student😂😂😂
That arm haha
What beautiful animals, such sweet songs! I wish I could swing with such ease among branches!
The hand eye coordination is astonishing the speed in which they move makes it looks effortless
I love these two.....BEAUTIFUL
Gibbons are so cool they all seem to be playful and tbey sure can move fast.
they're so playful haha so cute
These guys have always been my favorite,
Gibbons are so precious!
Thanks! I will keep a look out for the FSC label.
Jacqui is my favorite Gibbon trainer.
They are so fun to watch! So fast!
Go Wellington Zoo! We loved our visit and spent most a day there
I love gibbons they're so cute
Cool creatures
imagine how boring the world would be without all these crazy animals
I can watch them whole day ....
I'm on a Gibbon video spree right now. They are awesome
This girl is awesome...
She is a keeper.
I think they must be one of my favourite animals.
Omg I wanna hug em 😂 these guys are amazing
It did a cartwheel swing at the beginning!!!
Wow. She is a keeper.
Worked with Robyn at Perth, she is just divine 💕
gibbons are truly the king of swing...their ability to jump among the trees is a wonder of nature
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.
Their movements are so graceful
They are brilliant to watch and very cheeky.
That's what he said
I love the Gibbons style!!
They sound like balloons when you slowly open the bottom and it mAkes high pitch noises
If they boxed their jab would give u nightmares
I really like gibbon. Gibbons are so awesome.
What wonderful creatures gibbons are.
Right from the start of the video it does a upside down cartwheel which I didn't know was possible.
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 😂
Beautiful little guys. and Smart !
Beautiful. You guys do a wonderful job.
The yellow one, what a long hands
Spider-Man: I'm the king of swinging!
Gibbon: Hold my banana!
Watching gibbon videos make me happy
beautiful creatures
i am blaming joe sugg for this gibbon marathon
loving every single video so far
You are gibbon me smiles. I would cuddle those things for days
They are lovely. I met them on youtube durìng the quarantine. Amazing animals. :)
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!
one of my favorite animal.
davyon johnson Amazing experience my friend, thanks for sharing that :)
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.
Thank You for being YOU.
Who loves gibbons????? Me me meeeeee!!!!!!
I feel blessed!!
I adore Gibbons,they are so funny.
1:14 to 1:16 that is amazing
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
That cartwheel at the start! My god that is awesome
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 🤗!
@@Choose_Peace 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!
0:26 - Robin is a bad, bad girl. LOL!
My favorite!
Gibbons are so cute with their eyes and faces even if their adults
Damn they need to be drafted into the NBA.
Now we know where they get some of their player's!
@@whatsgood3930 ipoooopoooooallallpppppppkkooooklpppp0kmmml
I get the feeling from their body language that gibbons don't really have a care in the world. Just free spirits in manifested physical form. I love how innocent and curious they are. Highly intelligent and expressive. Makes you believe in a Creator of some kind (the Alien God Theory in my opinion). It's good to be Agnostic, taking a faith based approach and a scientific approach to a life philosophy, either path leading to the fact that intelligent design is real.
Yeah true! Kinda like otters in that regard.
Climbing structures? Check.
Swinging ropes? Check.
Fresh air? Check.
Food? Check.
Humans to goof around with? Check.
Each other? Check.
What else could a gibbon need
You forgot a mirror in wich to admire ones good looks
You nutcases always find a way to jam your bullshit into a totally unrelated topic.
ML what?
BEAUTIFUL
Thank you
Gibbons rule
