Siamang adalah spesies tengah gibbon terbesar di dunia, primat unik yang hanya ditemui di beberapa bahagian Thailand, Sumatra Indonesia dan Semenanjung Malaysia. Mereka biasanya tinggal di hutan tinggi, di kawasan montane atau berbukit. Rumah mereka di Malaysia, The Central Forest Spine di semenanjung, bukan sahaja memainkan peranan penting dalam bekalan air bersih kita tetapi juga merupakan koridor biodiversiti yang penting.

Siamang adalah sepenuhnya arboreal, dengan buah-buahan menyumbang lebih daripada 60% diet mereka. Mereka juga berperanan sebagai penyebar biji pokok fig asli. Ini membantu memastikan kesihatan keseluruhan hutan dan memastikan pokok fig terus berkembang sekaligus menyediakan makanan untuk spesies lain termasuk burung hornbill. Lelaki dan perempuan sama-sama mempunyai kantung tekak besar yang mampu mengeluarkan panggilan kuat berupa jeritan dan tawa yang boleh didengar dari jauh.

Spesies ini kini diklasifikasikan sebagai terancam akibat pemusnahan besar-besaran habitat hutan mereka disebabkan aktiviti pembalakan berleluasa atau penukaran ke ladang kelapa sawit. Selain itu, siamang juga terancam kerana perdagangan haiwan liar haram di rantau ini, di mana pemburu sering membunuh siamang dewasa (terutamanya ibu) untuk menangkap anak-anak mereka.

The siamang are the largest gibbon species in the world, unique apes that are only found in parts of Thailand, Indonesian Sumatra and Peninsular Malaysia. They typically live in tall, montane or hilly forests. Their Malaysian home, the Central Forest Spine of the peninsula, not only plays a vital part in our fresh water supply but also is an important biodiversity corridor.

Siamang are fully arboreal in nature, with fruit making up more than 60% of their diet. They are also native fig tree seed dispersers. This takes care of the overall jungle health and ensures that fig trees continue to grow and provide food for other species including hornbills. Both males and females have a large throat pouch capable of producing loud calls in the form of whoops and barks that can be heard far away.

The species is now endangered because of the large-scale destruction of its forest habitat that have been over-logged or converted to oil palm plantations. The siamang is also vulnerable to the illegal wildlife trade in the region, with poachers often killing adult (especially the mothers) siamang to capture the young ones.
