Finding Lar Gibbon in Indonesia

Lar Gibbons still occur in Indonesia, though specific park pins are still being curated. Use the Lar Gibbon field guide for ID and biology, and the Indonesia expedition page for broader wildlife destinations.

Indonesia context: Seventeen thousand islands, two biogeographic realms, and more endemic species than almost anywhere on Earth.

When you are out looking, prioritise tropical rainforest and evergreen forest in Indonesia. That is where local sightings of this species are most often reported.

Biology, interesting facts, identification, and conservation live on the Lar Gibbon field guide. This page stays focused on finding one in Indonesia.
