Captive Gibbons
In many of Thailand's tourist areas, local touts carry baby gibbons around
and try to lure foreigners into taking photographs with the cute little anim-
als. In exchange, the touts ask for a little money. If you see these touts, re-
member that the gibbons are being kept illegally, and that many gibbons die
when hunters try to capture them for the tourist trade. The Gibbon Rehab-
ilitation Centre at Khao Phra Thaeo National Park works to protect these
primates.
