Gibbons in South Thailand
In Thailand the populations
of wild gibbons are decreasing in size very quickly. Mothers are being
shot for their babies and the baby gibbons are commonly kept as pets
in family homes, or in bars as tourist attractions. In these bars, the
gibbons are often forced to wear clothes, drink beer and whisky, and
smoke cigarettes. When gibbons are kept as pets, they regularly become
more and more aggressive as they grow older and can no longer be kept.
