Only the best one gets to mate - forest langurs!
  • 5 years ago
Simian mating or an act of dominance? Or perhaps this is a training exercise?

Langurs spend their day on a forested path in Kanha National Parjk, Madhya Pradesh, India.

After the act, the male lies down on the muddy road...

Langurs (a type of wild monkey found in India) gather around a forest pond deep within a rocky chasm. The water body is formed almost as a natural well, deep within the rocky outcrops of the Kanha National Park. It must be cool down there, while the summer heat beats down on the forest above, and its denizens.

Kanha National Park is a national park and a Tiger Reserve in the Mandla and Balaghat districts of Madhya Pradesh, India. In the 1930s, Kanha area was divided into two sanctuaries, Hallon and Banjar, of 250 and 300 km² . Kanha National Park was created on 1 June 1955. Today it stretches over an area of 940 km² in the two districts Mandla and Balaghat. Together with a surrounding buffer zone of 1,067 km² and the neighboring 110 km² Phen Sanctuary it forms the Kanha Tiger Reserve. This makes it the largest National Park in Central India.

The park has a significant population of Royal Bengal Tiger, leopards, the sloth bear, Barasingha and Indian wild dog. The lush sal and bamboo forests, grassy meadows and ravines of Kanha provided inspiration to Rudyard Kipling for his famous novel "Jungle Book "
