Khon Kaen Zoo Introduces Rare Red-Shanked Douc Langur to Public

Khon Kaen Zoo welcomed visitors to meet a newly presented red-shanked douc langur, a species considered endangered. Born at the end of last year, the female infant, named Khongkwan, is part of a breeding initiative to help conserve the distinctive primates. The zoo currently cares for a small group of these langurs and hopes the public unveiling will raise awareness about their plight. Veterinary staff confirmed the young langur is healthy and adapting well. The zoo continues efforts to engage the community in wildlife preservation.
