Gibbons, the Amazing Acrobatic Travelers Through Southeast Asia’s Rainforest Canopy. . ・・・ The amazing acrobatic skills of a gibbon will astound you in this clip. You will see the gibbon travel limb to limb using an ability known as brachiation, then it take a huge leap to the neighboring tree and walk up a limb without using its hands to hold on. Gibbons are truly amazing apes! As they live in the canopy they have to develop skills that allow it to get around. The Bornean Gibbon have to travel using the relatively wide spaces between dipterocarp trees. This growth pattern is responsible for interesting evolutionary gliding adaptations of some rainforest creatures. ・・・ #Gibbon #Gibbons #Apes #LesserApes #SoutheastAsia #Rainforest #Dipterocarp #dipterocarpforest #brachiation #animalacrobatics #FavoritePrimate . ・・・ This is from an old clip found on YouTube posted by “ghimas81.” Check out their nature clips when you get a chance.
