Animal Facts:
The proboscis monkey (Nasalis larvatus), found only on the island of Borneo, is famous for its comically large nose and bright orange fur. But did you know that the male proboscis monkey often steals the spotlight? With their prominent, drooping noses—sometimes over 4 inches long!—these "silverbacks" (mature males) are thought to use their noses to amplify their booming calls, impressing females and intimidating rivals.
Males are also easily recognized by their pot-bellied appearance, thanks to their specialized stomachs for digesting leaves. Despite their funny looks, they’re excellent swimmers, often plunging into rivers with their webbed feet to escape predators or cross to new feeding grounds. These quirky, aquatic kings of the mangroves are truly one of nature’s most entertaining characters! 🐒
