The cutest thing you'll see today
Javan Langur Monkey, born at Howletts Wild Animal Park.
The most notable feature of Javan langurs is the variant color forms
that exist within groups. The primates may have a coat that is either
black or an orange/brown shade. At birth, all infants will have a bright
orange coat, which will gradually darken to one or the other color form
at around three to five months old.
