THE PROBOSCIS MONKEY Do Your Kids Know This?: A Children's Picture Book - Paperback

by Tanya Turner (Author)

The Proboscis Monkey is a rare and one-of-a-kind species.

Proboscis Monkey is different from the other types of monkeys because it has a very special trait - it has a long nose (a proboscis nose is a long nose).

This monkey's nose is so long, in fact, it is also called the "long-nosed monkey."

The Proboscis Monkey is a large species of monkey. The males usually measure anywhere from 26 to 35 inches in length - and that measurement only applies to their head and body measurement (they have very long tails, as well). Males of this size weigh about 35 to 60 pounds - so a typical male Proboscis Monkey can be the size and weight of a small child.

You can find Proboscis Monkeys in Borneo, Brunei, Malaysia, and Indonesia. They live in forests and plantations and areas where there are bodies of water.
