The Proboscis monkey is a fascinating primate and it is found only on the tropical island of Borneo in Southeast Asia. The wild populations are often restricted to coastal rainforest, mangrove forest and riverine forest. They feed on the naturally-occurring leaves and fruits from the forest. Little is know about their population dynamics, ecology and social behavior. Besides, it is not all that easy to keep them alive in captivity due to their specialized leafy diet. Only a few zoos in Asia display these rare monkeys. The author, an international primatologist with three decades of field research experience, has studied these amazing monkeys, both in the wild (in-situ) and in captivity (ex-situ). In this monograph, the author has synthesized his scientific research on proboscis monkeys in the wild and in zoo setting with details on population, ecology, behavior, conservation and management. Therefore this monograph should serve as an introductory and reference text on primatology and animal behavior related courses in colleges, universities and institutes of higher learning globally.

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.

Concentrating on their presence in Borneo, the ecology and conservation of two large Southeast Asian primates, the orangutan (Pongo pygmaeus) and the proboscis monkey (Nasalis larvatus) are reviewed. The former species occurs only in Borneo and Sumatra and the latter only in Borneo. The comparative threats facing these two endangered primates and their approximate numbers in the wild are put into perspective. The long-term survival of both species is adversely affected by the degradation and conversion of their suitable forest habitat by logging and agriculture, the occurrence of hunting and poaching, and forest fires. The effectiveness of measures to conserve these species are discussed and evaluated from the standpoint of economics. It is concluded that informed assessment of the opportunity costs of conserving these species and their habitat is required and better incentives for law enforcement must be created. Properly regulated ecotourism may draw the necessary attention to the plight of these species and may even help fund conservation research. Economics can help identify least, or low, cost opportunities for conserving species as is demonstrated in this article, even if it is not always possible to demonstrate their economic value convincingly.
