Pig-tailed langur
open-in-new
<h2 id="description">Description</h2> <p>The pig-tailed langur is a large and rather heavily built <a href="/facts/Old_World_monkey/hrhKhgt7">Old World monkey</a>, adapted to climbing with its long arms. Its fur is black-brown, and its hairless face is also black. It is the only monkey in the subfamily <a href="/facts/Colobinae/kQYzXQqM">Colobinae</a> to have a relatively short tail; the tail is only slightly furred and is only 15 cm (5.9 in) long. The short nose is pointed upward. The pig-tailed langur reaches a full grown length of approximately 50 cm (20 in) and a weight of 7 kg (15 lb). </p><p><a href="/facts/Sexual_dimorphism/nx9wulFy">Sexual dimorphism</a> is exhibited by this species with adult males being larger and heavier than adult females.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:14" href="#fn:14"><sup>14</sup></a> <a href="/facts/Sexual_swelling/H3BuQLf0">Sexual swelling</a> is exhibited by this species which is rare for single male multi female groups of <a href="/facts/Colobinae/kQYzXQqM">Colobinae</a> monkeys.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:15" href="#fn:15"><sup>15</sup></a> </p> <h2 id="classification">Classification</h2> <p>Many researchers would like to reclassify this species into the <i><a href="/facts/Nasalis_(genus)/1aUEDYY4">Nasalis</a></i> genus but phylogenic analyses suggest that these two groups should remain in their separate sister taxa.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:16" href="#fn:16"><sup>16</sup></a> The <a href="/facts/Critically_Endangered/UI5nTQwF">Critically Endangered</a> status of this primate gives even more reason for it to remain under the genus <i>Simias</i> since the grouping of these genera could affect conservation efforts.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:17" href="#fn:17"><sup>17</sup></a> </p> <h2 id="diet">Diet</h2> <p>It is an <a href="/facts/Omnivore/b8zcsuJF">omnivore</a> with a diet consisting of <a href="/facts/Leaf/1m6wCNTg">leaves</a>, <a href="/facts/Flower/7gI5Kefw">flowers</a>, <a href="/facts/Fruit/PBpuzk60">fruits</a> and occasionally <a href="/facts/Insect/IgDNvnUL">insects</a>.

The mating system of this species follows a <a href="/facts/Polygyny_in_animals/9QVUtGHj">polygynous</a> structure although it was originally thought to be <a href="/facts/Monogamy_in_animals/AvmMepzc">monogamous</a>.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:27" href="#fn:27"><sup>27</sup></a> </p> <h2 id="endangerment-status-and-threats-to-conservation">Endangerment status and threats to conservation</h2> <p>This species is classified as <a href="/facts/Critically_Endangered/UI5nTQwF">Critically endangered</a> by the <a href="/facts/International_Union_for_Conservation_of_Nature/QwV8JXup">International Union for Conservation of Nature</a>.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:28" href="#fn:28"><sup>28</sup></a> It was classified as <a href="/facts/Endangered_species_(IUCN_status)/ey8h2sRG">Endangered (IUCN status)</a> up until 2008 were the endangerment status was changed to <a href="/facts/Critically_Endangered/UI5nTQwF">Critically Endangered</a>.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:29" href="#fn:29"><sup>29</sup></a> It is among <a href="/facts/The_World%2527s_25_Most_Endangered_Primates/4joJjqNQ">The World's 25 Most Endangered Primates</a> due to the many <a href="/facts/Human_impact_on_the_environment/vIAWqfPB">anthropogenic</a> pressures it faces on the islands<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:30" href="#fn:30"><sup>30</sup></a> which include, destruction of forest for commercial use, hunting and illegal pet trade.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:31" href="#fn:31"><sup>31</sup></a> Population size estimates have been conducted across many years with varying islands being chosen for research areas. In the 1980s population estimates of the Pig-tailed langur was 19,000 on the island of Siberut and 26,000 across all four islands.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:32" href="#fn:32"><sup>32</sup></a> In 2004 Lisa M. Paciulli dedicated their <a href="/facts/PhD_dissertation/dYnTaYqQ">PhD dissertation</a> towards studying threats to Mentawai island primates and determining <a href="/facts/Population_density/70zGTCFc">population densities</a> associated with logging pressures.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:33" href="#fn:33"><sup>33</sup></a> Population estimates were found to be around 6,700-17,300 across all islands with a large amount of variation being attributed due to hunting and logging pressures.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:34" href="#fn:34"><sup>34</sup></a> Population densities were 2.5 individuals/km2 in logged areas whereas unlogged areas had a population density of 5 individuals/km2.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:35" href="#fn:35"><sup>35</sup></a> </p><p>An extensive population density survey was conducted by the <a href="/facts/University_of_Indonesia/7cCJJvrJ">University of Indonesia</a> on four endemic Mentawai primates. This research was exclusive to the southern Mentawai islands and included a variety of survey areas, most of which devastated by <a href="/facts/Commercial_logging/YnjEaap7">commercial logging</a>. The results of the 2008–2009 surveys are population densities of 1.5 groups/km2 on the island of Sipora and 2.1 ± 0.3 groups/km2 on the Pagai islands with group sizes around 3 individuals.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:36" href="#fn:36"><sup>36</sup></a> Research into population densities on the northern Mentawai island of Siberut is more abundant due to the lower mean population densities of humans living on this island as well as the considerable amount of forestry that remains in comparison to the southern Mentawai islands. In northern Siberut researchers in the Peleonan forest conducted population density surveys from July to December 2005.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:37" href="#fn:37"><sup>37</sup></a> Results form these surveys show a mean density of 16.2 groups/km2.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:38" href="#fn:38"><sup>38</sup></a> </p><p>One of the main factors associated with the population decline of this species is habitat disturbance from commercial logging operations.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:39" href="#fn:39"><sup>39</sup></a> Forestry cover varies significantly among the islands. The island of Siberut has most of its area declared as a <a href="/facts/National_park/otRgEoQ3">National park</a> whereas the southern islands of Sipora, North Pagai, and South Pagai have limited areas of forestry conservation.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:40" href="#fn:40"><sup>40</sup></a> It is estimated that Siberut's forest cover decreased from 3,500 km2 to 2,400 km2 and the southern Mentawai islands of Sipora and Pagai have decreased from 1300 km2 to 300 km2.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:41" href="#fn:41"><sup>41</sup></a> The reason for Siberut's extensive forestry cover in comparison to the southern islands is due to historical conservation efforts. Much of the efforts started in the 1980s with the help of <a href="/facts/UNESCO/QSbkRv3o">UNESCO man and the Biosphere reserve</a>.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:42" href="#fn:42"><sup>42</sup></a> This was expanded in the 1990s were a large portion of Siberut was declared a National Park.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:43" href="#fn:43"><sup>43</sup></a> The declaration of this National Park allowed for hunting and logging operations to be significantly reduced; although areas around the national park still experience pressures of logging and conversions to commercial palm oil plantations through concessions and illegal activities.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:44" href="#fn:44"><sup>44</sup></a> Many of the areas in the southern Mentawai islands have experienced heavy logging operations that have left little forestry for the Mentawai primates. Most of the forestry has now been reduced from <a href="/facts/Primary_forest/kffLtWkA">primary forestry</a> to <a href="/facts/Secondary_forest/8RkJ4Alm">secondary forestry</a> which is troubling since the pig-tailed langur thrives in arboreal environments.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:45" href="#fn:45"><sup>45</sup></a> </p><p>The reduction on forestry in the southern Mentawai islands creates a domino effect of paving new land for more human activities and settlement.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:46" href="#fn:46"><sup>46</sup></a> The second main factor associated with the population decline of this species is <a href="/facts/Hunting/z1XhJdB2">hunting</a>. Local inhabitants have historically used arrows and poisonous materials to hunt this species.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:47" href="#fn:47"><sup>47</sup></a> However technological advancements of firearms have facilitated the hunting of this species, especially since it is one of the largest primates on these islands.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:48" href="#fn:48"><sup>48</sup></a> Many local inhabitants hunt this species because it is considered a delicacy, with many locals saying it has the best tasting meat compared to other primates.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:49" href="#fn:49"><sup>49</sup></a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:50" href="#fn:50"><sup>50</sup></a> Population density data suggests that an increase in hunting pressure at survey sites results in lower population densities of this primate.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:51" href="#fn:51"><sup>51</sup></a> </p> <h2 id="subspecies">Subspecies</h2> <ul><li>Genus <i>Simias</i> <a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:52" href="#fn:52"><sup>52</sup></a> <ul><li>Pig-tailed langur, <i>Simias concolor</i> <ul><li><i>Simias concolor concolor</i></li> <li><i>Simias concolor siberu</i></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul> <h2 id="references">References</h2> <ol> <li id="fn:1"><p>Quinten, M.; Setiawan, A.; Cheyne, S.; Traeholt, C.; Whittaker, D.
