- A baby white-cheeked gibbon was recently rescued by a group of border police officers in Pu'er City of southwest China's Yunnan Province, during the crackdown of an illegal animal trafficking ring.
Based on the investigation carried out by the local forest police bureau, it was evident that the baby gibbon was purchased from Vietnamese traffickers in September.
"After our investigation, we got information about the suspect who had bought the gibbon from Vietnamese traffickers in order to cure his mother," said Wu Tao, police officer from Jiangcheng Forest Bureau.
The bureau’s technical department later confirmed that the gibbon belonged to animals under class-1 state protection.
The baby white-cheeked gibbon - a species of gibbon native to South East Asia, has been recovering its health for over a month under close supervision of the staff at Pu'er National Park.
Since the baby ape cannot survive on its own in the wild, the park staff has been constantly keeping a track of its health and eating habits.
"The baby used to always hide in one corner of the cage, either because it was malnourished or simply afraid. It gradually started trusting us, after we fed it with milk, bananas and bread. It loves to hug us all the time," said Hu Yaming, staff at Pu'er National Park.
An outdoor cabin has been built for the baby gibbon, and it’s been trained for outdoor survival, Hu said.
"When it’s completely healthy, we will release it into some place where it can survive with the help of local forest public security police," said Qian Fuchun, staff responsible for animal shelter at Pu'er National Park.
The white-cheeked gibbons are mostly found in the tropical rain forests covering the borders of China, Laos and Vietnam. There are now not more than 350 white-cheeked gibbons around the world.

So cute but so sad that these beautiful animals are being devastated but there are good people out there to care and help
The first thing that comes to our lips, and arguably the most dangerous impulse for their well-being:

Tq for not caging the Gibbon.
Are gibbons, many different colors or types?
Yes there are MANY different colors and types..it is difficult to keep up with them. The funny thing is too that females and males of the same species are sometimes different colors (like in one species the females are blond and the males are black) and that in that same species that infants will all be blond until they get to a certain age and as they mature they will then begin to change into the color of their sex! So that makes it even harder to remember which is which!
Anyone else notice something moving through the trees at 1:52 ?
