Monkey, see: A baby silvered langur goes on view at the Bronx Zoo

NEW YORK — A new resident is causing a stir at the Bronx Zoo, bringing a dash of warm color to the chilly winter days. The zoo announced Thursday that a male baby silvered langur has joined its exhibit, delighting visitors with his bright orange coat.

Formally known as Trachypithecus cristatus, the silvered langur hails from the forests of Brunei, Indonesia, and Malaysia. Unfortunately, this species is listed as “vulnerable” by the International Union for Conservation of Nature, indicating a growing threat to its survival.

Born in November at the Bronx Zoo, the little langur is one of more than 100 of its kind bred by the institution over the past four decades. The Betriefler bunch, as they’re often called, are known for their leafy diets and agile tree-climbing skills.

Visitors can catch a glimpse of the newborn langur at the zoo’s JungleWorld exhibit, where he’s been spotted snuggling with adults and scaling branches with agility. His vibrant orange fur stands out strikingly against the adults’ more subdued gray coats, making him an irresistible sight for zoo-goers.

As of now, the tiny primate remains nameless, awaiting his official name to be announced soon. animal enthusiasts and conservationists alike are eager to see how this newest addition grows and thrives in his jungle home.
