More than 700 Phayre's leaf monkeys were spotted recently in southwest China's Yunnan Province. They were spotted by and photographed with infrared cameras installed inside the Tongbiguan Nature Reserve during a two month field investigation. Phayre's leaf monkeys, also known as Phayre's langurs, are under first-class state protection in China and the new discovery will help zoologists develop a deeper understanding of the endangered species.
