These creatures are truly a marvel to observe. I do wonder, however, to what extent their habitat might be endangered by pollution. Interesting that they show no fear of people.

One of the reasons they are dying out, is that they rely on lichen which is usually found on rotting or dying trees. These are now harvested by humans putting a lot of stress on one of their primary sources of food.
In the Qinling mountains, pollution isn't as big a problem as say somewhere like Beijing. Cultural and Traditional values have to be changed to give them a chance of survival. The people themselves don't respect them enough!

Humans can be such mean creatures themselves, very destructive beings. Thanks for your post.

Maybe one day it will be like in India that there is a city full of monkeys and monkeys statues and life is all about monkeys and monkey gods
