Little Keo-co, born 7 weeks ago at the Taronga Zoo in Sydney, Austraila, made his public debut on 16 March.
"He's quite inquisitive," zoo primate keeper Roxanne Pellatt said. "When the keepers are around and he's in his den he'll stick his head out and have a look."The Courier-Mail
Keo-co's bright orange fur is quite a sight but he won't retain that vibrant colour. "His colour will gradually start changing . . . at about six months he will be completely black with a tiny bit of white on his face," Ms Pellatt said. An endangered species native to Vietnam and China, there are thought to be less than 1000 francois langur monkeys left in the wild.
