Hi Smith's, thank you! We were thrilled to see the alpha male too.
Hi Dive, this is amazing spot! Just amazing. So happy to hear you can still see this primate in a "wild" area. Congratulations!
@Smith'sZoo: Yes this was seen in the wild near the banks of the Kinabatangan river in Sabah.
Did you see him in the wild?
