Proboscis monkeys and other wildlife

Sunday in Brunei
Found only in Borneo, these strange looking monkeys have long, orange noses. The male's nose hangs longer than the female's, which is pointy.
At four o'clock we were taken up the Brunei River to where the proboscis monkeys live in the mangroves. At this time, a couple of hours before sunset, the groups of monkeys that live together, can be seen, along the river's edge, feeding on the young shoots of the mangrove plant. We watched as they swung and climbed from tree to tree.

Deadly I was told!

On the trip we also saw a crocodile lying on the muddy river bank, as well as large monitor lizards that live in the mangrove forests and can climb trees. Long- tailed macaques were feeding and playing too. The local people don't like these naughty monkeys because they eat their crops. But they are fun to watch!
