An endangered (IUCN) and federally endangered Gee’s golden langur (Trachypithecus geei) at the Assam State Zoo cum Botanical Garden. With only four in captivity (all at this zoo) and the remaining 2,000 animals under severe pressure from poaching and habitat loss, this is simultaneously one of the rarest and most beautiful primates in the world.
