There are so many things we still do not know about this subspecies!

Looking forward to working with them in 2025! 🐒

Gathering information such as the macaque’s ecology and behaviour, as well as the people’s perceptions and history with the macaques could be the first important step in formulating conservation strategies and preventive measures for the population.

Raising awareness and identifying key conservation areas are essential to ensure the protection of this species.

This species is considered to be Near Threatened on the IUCN Red List, threatened by habitat loss, pet trade and hunting. There are no clear estimates on the population size of this species in Vietnam and furthermore it can be challenging to study them due to inaccessible terrain

[Amos Chua 🇸🇬 @macacatales]

The successful growth and protection of this species is a result of multistakeholder collaborations, which displayed the importance and need for local, national and international efforts if we want to ensure the future of a species.

In the past, there were more populations living outside of Van Long Nature Reserve such as those in Cuc Phuong National Park. However, these populations or groups have either been eradicated or are extremely rare to find, which is a result of intense hunting and habitat loss.
