Proboscis Monkey: Borneo’s Big-Nosed River Primate — Premium Wildlife Guide

Meet the Proboscis Monkey — Borneo’s Most Extraordinary Primate

Deep in the mangrove forests and riverine jungles of Borneo, one of nature’s most extraordinary-looking primates makes its home. The proboscis monkey (Nasalis larvatus) is instantly recognisable by its enormous, pendulous nose — in large males, it can grow so long it hangs below the chin, wobbling as the animal calls or feeds. Found only on the island of Borneo, this remarkable primate is an expert swimmer, a dedicated leaf-eater, and one of the most endangered primates in Southeast Asia. This premium digital guide takes you into the world of Borneo’s most iconic monkey.
