With approximately only 50,000 individuals left in the wild, 35,000 of those in the Cardamom Rainforest in Cambodia, the gibbon populations are on sharp decline due to hunting and habitat fragmentation. They are famous for the incredible calls that resonate through the forest. They vocalize in defense of their territory; however hunters often use these calls to pinpoint their location and capture them.

Meet Preah
This is Preah, she is one of our oldest residents at the Phnom Tamao Wildlife Rescue Centre. She has lived at Phnom Tamao since before Wildlife Alliance started to provide support in 2001. Her name means god or king in the Khmer language, perhaps this put her in good stead for longevity!
