There are more than 400 individuals of red-shanked douc langur living in Son Tra Peninsula, central Da Nang city.
Covering over 4,400ha of land, the Son Tra forest habours hundreds of animal species, including the red shanked douc langur which is indigenous to Indochina.
The forest provides the most abundant food supply for the red shanked douc langur between April and June, when trees change their leaves.
International trade on the species is prohibited by the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora - CITES.
