Wildlife Photographer of the Year 2020 (Fridge Magnet) - Treetop Douc

Wildlife Photographer of the Year 2020 (Fridge Magnet) - Treetop Douc

A brilliant little keepsake from the Wildlife Photographer of the Year 2020 exhibition.

Arshdeep asked to join his father’s business trip to Vietnam after reading about the endangered red-shanked douc langur that lives there. He had just three days at the nature reserve and only on the last day did a douc appear in a nearby tree. Arshdeep managed to shoot clear of the leaves, capturing this fleeting glance.

These striking primates are found only in Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia, distinguished by their bright red ‘stockings’. They live in either families or larger groups. During the cooler hours of the day, doucs will forage for leaves, flowers and fruit. Loss of habitat and hunting threaten their future.
