Hoolock gibbon ♀ are the second-largest of the gibbons, after the siamang.
The hoolock is found south of Brahmaputra and the North Bank areas and east of the Dibang Rivers. Its range extends into seven NE states of India.
Like the other gibbons, they are diurnal and arboreal, brachiating through the trees with their long arms. They live together in monogamous pairs, which stake out a territory. Their calls serve to locate family members and ward off other gibbons from their territory. Their diet consists mainly of fruits, insects and leaves.
IUCN redlist status: Endangered.
