Duet of "Singing" Gibbons at Brookfield Zoo

- Check your sound levels before you watch this video of a gibbon "duet" as Indah and Benny call out to each other at Brookfield Zoo! (Their male offspring Thani is listening in!) Mated pairs of gibbons mark their territory primarily through loud vocal displays, the sounds of which travel hundreds of yards through the forest. To strengthen the bond between them, male and female gibbons perform a sort of duet. The females' part is a long rising series of notes that end in a fast "twitter." The male's song is not as complicated as the female's. He grunts, squeals, and whistles. And if in the wild, to a neighboring group of gibbons, the call means, "Keep out!"
lol I love how they get all hyped up and start swinging when their song gets exciting, just like humans rocking out on stage.
Not sure if its because they get excited, but it looks really fun
The echo makes them sound like some sort of siren.
Wow. The white gibbon sounds a futuristic synthesizer.
Nah bro the lar gibbon really said;
🚔
The building makes it echo. Sounds so haunting. Hauntingly beautiful
0:58
White Gibbon: Dream on, Dream on! DREAM ON!! DREEEEAM OOOOOON!!!
😂
lol I got scared with the cream one
@@lateralus_enjoyer These are white cheeked gibbons. The black ones are males and the white one is a female.
Wow, getting great natural reverb and echo effects.
here come the Gibbon police !! 00:59
It sounds like something unearthly
Martin: I have no idea who that creature could be!!!
Chris: it sounds unearthly, unworldly!!!
Amazing! I love Gibbons and this is remarkable to see/hear. Thank you for sharing.
Are they from the rainforest? If so, the dense forrest acts like a cathedral. I just hope it doesn't hurt their ears. It is pretty damn amazing and stunning!!
Yes they are from the rainforest of Assam in India
Theyre very endangered because indians dont care about animals.
Surreal.
Correct me if I'm mistaken, but, aren't these calls meant to mark a gibbon's territory?
Yes they are. They’re also meant for the members of their family groups to keep in touch with each other.
And warn for danger, and many other things
Not much territory being stuck in a freakin zoo... 😢
they sound like ghosts!!!! I guess it's all due to the acoustic..
This would be great as part of a horror sound track. Imagine it; the sound of echoing, inhuman cries over a crowd of children in the background..
Chills on spine. Absolutely amazing! Mother nature for the win!
Their song is freaking my cats out!😊
Mine's asleep on my lap, but the dogs' ears are definitely tuned in. 😊
Their song sounds like it could be a segue track on Tool's Aenima/Lateralus album
Hoolock Gibbons from North-East India
*1:03** 🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨*
I kept waiting for the bass to drop...
Mariah Carey is shaking...

HAHAHAHA the white one got me laughing hard at 0:59 the face priceless
You mean 0:59
The white Gibbon was reenacting the end of the instrumental portion of "Whole Lotta Love"
Some species of Gibbons, not sure if it's this species, were nearly annihilated by the savagery of the Vietnam War.
Gives me goosebumps, every time!😍
Priceless. Absolutely priceless.
I feel like I just took acid
Boy it would be much better sound if they were out in the open like at Henry Doorly.
hey Jonny Greenwood! Listen this!
#Gibbons
I wish I could understand their language...
RIP MY EARS 1:00
0:58 super saiyan
Did the Gibbons produce any babies? I only see 2 when I go there now 😭
At 1:00 the gibbons movements and sounds remind me if pota, but it doesnt have gibbons
That white one reminds me of awesome 70's synthesizers...they should nickname him "Edgar Winter."
They are good at making noise
Good job brookfield zoo for creating this amazing enclosure for these amazing Gibbons
kind of like car alarms on steroids!
scary in the reverb dome
Daft punk but monke (ik theyre apes )
i died at 0:59
Same here! We watched this in class and I was cracking up at that part
A 'Firest' inside a zoo ? How great are humen !
A regular lobby in gorilla tag:
не хуже, чем у металлики )))
I love love love gibbons
Why does this suddenly remind me of bigfoot?!
Oh hell no 😂😂
Big guy's got the best solo vocal bit in the animal kingdom!
👁️👄👁️👂
i like gibens the song of the giben is amazing
Primordial. Love it.
Poor dears. I studied them in the wild 1987. This is a song of utter distress,DR T European scolar
Coooool
how are you sister Kathy?
I had an ex who sounded just like that, glad that relationship is over.
Xenakis’ Terretektorh makes entirely
more sense now
Hope they sleep at night.
Strewth.
Beautiful
I was thinking the same thing
haha
If only they were safe in the Sumatran jungle where they belong.
Beautiful songs. 🌿
We all wish the animals would be safe in their natural environments. We work with organizations around the world who help spread awareness and protect various habitats, while helping the local humans create an alternative source of income that doesn't encroach upon habitats.
Awesome!
This is quite sad and disgusting. These beautiful primates being trapped indoors within a small domed zoo for the 'pleasure' of humans. There are so many places in the world where you can hear the morning choir of gibbons and other calls when they're free in the wild.
Don’t judge the music
that's annoying noise.
kristin m Your stupid comment is more annoying.......🙄
Taekook 😆
