White-Handed Gibbon (Hylobates lar)

The White-Handed Gibbon (Hylobates lar) is an endangered, tree-living primate.

Because of hunting and clearing of the rainforests where they make their home, these
animals are in danger of extinction. It is estimated that a mere 10% of their natural
habitat remains, and most of this falls in protected sanctuaries. The young are often
captured and sold as pets.
White-Handed Gibbons are found in the tropical rainforests of Indonesia,
southern China, Burma, Malaysia, and Thailand. They are most often found in the
treetops, swinging from branch to branch. They don’t build nests for sleeping like other
apes, but, instead, they sleep sitting upright on a tree branch.
White-Handed Gibbons have very thick, soft fur that ranges in color from black to
a reddish-tan. They have essentially hairless black faces which are ringed in white, and,
true to their name, the upper parts of their hands are white with an opposable thumb.
They have very long arms which are well suited for tree swinging. An adult gibbon can
reach a height of 25 inches (63 cm) and a weight of 14 pounds (6 kg). They are tail-less
and have coarse pads of skin on their rears that help protect and give comfort when they
are sitting or sleeping on tree branches.
Primarily herbivorous, White-Handed Gibbons most often eat fruit and leaves,
and they appear to be most fond of figs. However, they will eat insects, bird eggs, and
the occasional bird, which they snatch out of the air as they swing by. They forage during
the day, often stopping at more than 16 different trees to find food and will rest during
the heat of the day.

Dear Paula,
Hello Paula, how are you? It’s been a month since I last heard from you. Well, I just
wanted to tell you that I was in a hospital last week. According to the doctor; I was
infected by dengue fever.
At first, I felt my body became weak then I fainted when I was studying in the classroom.

gave me permission to go home. Now, I’m okay and because of my illness, I am now

20. The Owl and the Nightingale

There was once a nightingale in a cage by a window that was his habit to sing only
at night. An owl was puzzled by this and went to ask the nightingale what the reason
was. “When I was captured,” explained the nightingale, “it was day and I was singing. In
this way I learnt to be more carefully and to sing only at night.”
“Are you afraid you might be captured a second time?” asked the owl. “Oh, it
would have been better if you had been more careful the first time when your freedom
was at risk. Now it doesn’t really matter any more, right?”
