	Gibbon - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Gibbons are small apes that are grouped in the family Hylobatidae.
		One unique aspect of gibbon physiology is that the wrist is comprised of a ball and socket joint, allowing for biaxial movement.
		Also called the lesser apes, gibbons differ from great apes ( chimpanzees, gorillas, orangutans and humans) in being smaller, pair-bonded, in not making nests, and in certain anatomical details in which they superficially more closely resemble monkeys than the great apes do.

		Gibbons are also called "lesser apes", indicating their close relationship to the "great apes", including Chimpanzees, Bonobos, Gorillas and Orang-utans.
		The arms of Gibbons are the longest among all primates.
		The length of their arms enables Gibbons to move in a way, which is optimal in the top of the trees and can be described as "swinging hand over hand".

		The gibbons sing less in disturbed and fragmented habitats compared to their normal rich habitats, and therefore, it may be argued that in fragmented habitat their presence can be missed due to lack in hearing the songs.
		The main cause of the decline of the Hoolock gibbon is the destruction of its habitat due to agriculture, plantations, illegal felling and hunting.
		The Hoolock gibbon is found in several types of habitats: tropical evergreen forest, the wetter tropical semi-evergreen forests, sub-tropical monsoon evergreen broadleaf forests, and sub-tropical evergreen broadleaf hill or mountain forests.

		A study of wild and captive gibbons and museum specimens, and a survey of the literature, suggests that gibbons (genus Hylobates) include 12 species, which form four distinct groups (genera Hylobates, Hoolock, Nomascus, and Symphalangus): these are the 44-chromosome gibbons (including the Hylobates lar group and H.

	Gibbon Taxonomy to be Utilized by Breeding Facilities
		Two of the purposes for breeding gibbons in captivity are to retain species and subspecies diversity and to create a viable gene pool, with the ultimate goal of releasing offspring into protected native habitat.
		Accurate identification of an individual gibbon's species may be complicated within some gibbon species by 1) the variety of coat colors, 2) the existence of different colors for the two sexes, 3) the occurrence of coat color changes at sexual maturity, and in all species by 4) the impact of malnutrition and housing (e.g.
		For this paper, gibbons' specific and subspecific status was determined through the comparison of study skins housed in North American and Southeast Asian museums and live specimens housed at the International Center for Gibbons Studies and zoos.

	IPS 2004 Symposia
		While the radiation of gibbons comprises the majority of extant hominoid taxa, disproportionately little attention has been paid to the study of the behavior, ecology and population biology of wild gibbons.
		While early gibbon studies focusing on single or a few groups suggested that gibbon social organization is fairly uniform across and within populations, more recent studies have demonstrated an unexpected range of variation in gibbon dietary and social adaptations within and between populations.
		As gibbons include several of the most endangered taxa on earth, and populations are the units upon which conservation efforts must focus, this symposium will devote particular attention to presentations involving the conservation status of threatened gibbon populations.
