The '''proboscis monkey''' or '''long-nosed monkey''' ('''''Nasalis larvatus''''') is an arboreal Old World monkey with an unusually large nose (or proboscis), a reddish-brown skin color and a long tail. It is endemic to the Southeast Asian island of Borneo and is found mostly in mangrove forests and on the coastal areas of the island.<ref name="Animal Diversity Web-2019">{{cite web|url=https://animaldiversity.org/accounts/Nasalis_larvatus/|title=Proboscis monkey| website=Animal Diversity Web |date=December 2019|access-date=11 December 2019}}</ref>

==Description== The proboscis monkey is a large species, being one of the largest monkey species native to Asia. Only the Tibetan macaque and a few of the gray langurs can rival its size.
Sexual dimorphism is pronounced in the species. Males have a head-body length of {{convert|66|to|76.2|cm|in|abbr=on}} and typically weigh {{convert|16|to|22.5|kg|lb|abbr=on}}, with a maximum known weight of {{convert|30|kg|lb|abbr=on}}. Females measure {{convert|53.3|to|62|cm|in|abbr=on}} in head-and-body length and weigh {{convert|7|to|12|kg|lb|abbr=on}}, with a maximum known mass of {{convert|15|kg|lb|abbr=on}}.<ref name=Napier1985>{{cite book|last1=Napier |first1=J.

===Communication=== Proboscis monkeys are known to make various vocalizations. When communicating the status of group, males will emit honks. They have a special honk emitted towards infants, which is also used for reassurance. Males will also produce alarm calls to signal danger. Both sexes give threat calls, but each are different. In addition, females and immature individuals will emit so-called "female calls" when angry.<ref>{{cite journal|author1=Messeri P. |author2=Trombi M. |year=2000| title=Vocal repertoire of proboscis monkey (''Nasalis larvatus'', L.) in Sarawak| journal=Folia Primatol.| volume= 71| issue=4|pages=268–287}}</ref> Honks, roars and snarls are made during low-intensity agonistic encounters.

==Conservation status== The proboscis monkey is assessed as endangered in the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species and listed in Appendix I of CITES. Its total population has decreased by more than 50% in the past 36–40 years to 2008 due to ongoing habitat loss because of logging and oil palm plantations, and hunting in some areas due to the species being treated as a delicacy, as well as its use in traditional Chinese medicine.<ref name="Woltanski-2004" /> The population is fragmented: the largest remaining populations are found in Kalimantan; there are far fewer in Sarawak, Brunei and Sabah.<ref name=iucn/> The proboscis monkey is protected by law in all regions of Borneo. In Malaysia, it is protected by a number of laws including the Wildlife Protection Act (federal law), the Wildlife Protection Ordinance 1998 (Chapter 26) and Wildlife Conservation Enactment 1997 (Sabah state law).
The proboscis monkey can be found in 16 protected areas: Danau Sentarum National Park, Gunung Palung National Park, Kendawangan Nature Reserve, Kutai National Park, Lesan Protection Forest, Muara Kaman Nature Reserve, Mandor Reserve and Tanjung Puting National Park in Indonesia; Bako National Park, Gunung Pueh Forest Reserve, Kabili-Sepilok Forest Reserve, Klias National Park, Kulamba Wildlife Reserve, Lower Kinabatangan Wildlife Sanctuary, Sungei Samunsam Wildlife Sanctuary and Ulu Segama Reserve in Malaysia.<ref name=iucn/>
