A baby lion-tailed macaque was born on the 10th of this month at a zoo in Hitachi City, Ibaraki Prefecture, and its adorable appearance has become popular.
The “lion-tailed macaque” is a monkey that inhabits India and has bushy hair like a lion at the tip of its tail. It is designated as an endangered species by the “Red List” of the IUCN = International Union for Conservation of Nature. ..
At the "Kamine Zoo" in Hitachi City, Ibaraki Prefecture, we are breeding three lion-tailed macaques, and a male baby was born between two male "Tsuyoshi" and female "Sakura" on the 10th of this month. ..
The baby was open to the public on the day of its birth, and on the 26th, it showed a healthy appearance, such as playing with his mother's sakura, siblings, and climbing a wire net, and was attracting the attention of visitors.
The baby has no name yet and will be considered in the zoo in the future.
A woman in her 30s visiting from Tsuchiura City, Ibaraki Prefecture, said, “It was very cute. I was healed with my child.”
Yuya Someya, a keeper of the Hitachi City Kamine Zoo, said, “I am growing vigorously, such as walking. I want to enjoy the growth together because it grows fast every day.”
