The Javan Gibbon or Silvery Gibbon (Hylobates moloch), lives exclusively in Java Island, they are a very active animal. As you can see in the picture, their skin grey colour with a dark grey or black cap. Like all gibbons, they have no tail and their arms is very long compared with their body.
Unfortunately, Javan Gibbon is almost forgotten by other people, you can called it "Javan Gibbon is the lost green jewel stone". The Javan Gibbon is the most threatened primates ( basen on IUCN list in 2009 ). Habitats loss cause the population of this gibbon reduces rapidly, also illegal pet trade. To prevent of all this things Indonesia build Gunung Halimun National Park that sustain population 1,000 gibbons. And also, severals zoo operate Javan Gibbon breeding programs.
