Labuk Bay Proboscis Monkey Sanctuary

The Proboscis monkey (Nasalis larvatus) from Sabah is famous for its long nose. The monkey is only found on the island of Borneo which consists of Kalimantan, Sarawak, Brunei and Sabah.

The Proboscis monkey has seen a drop of 50% in its population due to de-forestation and hunting.
