The other siblings have clearly learned from mum as they leap and tumble nimbly around in the background mum and baby.

Javan Gibbons only live in the wild on the Indonesian island of Java. They belong to some of the most threatened primates and are listed as an endangered species on the IUCN (International Union for Conservation of Nature) Red List.
It is estimated that there are fewer than 2,000 worldwide.
Their long arms are noteworthy at two and a half times the length of their torso.
Using these arms and the so-called brachiation method, they are able to swing confidently across distances of up to ten metres in the tree-tops. Like other species of Gibbon, their very loud singing is characteristic and serves to identify their territory.
Once a Javan gibbon pair mate, they live together in a life-long, monogamous relationship in a family group comprising their not yet sexually mature children. Keepers say Pangrango and partner Peter are model parents when it comes to looking after their children, with both sharing responsibility.
At only a few weeks old this little one is already testing out solid foods.
Javan Gibbons are vegetarian and eat mostly fruit, vegetables, salad or foliage. When young animals reach sexual maturity the father banishes their sons and the mother banishes their daughters from the group. In captivity Javan Gibbons live to about 50 years old.
