The area is home to ten species of primate including the endearing orang utan, but the real highlight here is the proboscis monkey, which can only be found in Borneo and are famed for their huge, comical noses and an impressive harem of wives. River trips at dawn and dusk offer superb opportunities for seeing these endearing monkeys as well as an abundance of other wildlife including the Asian elephant, monitor lizards and a huge variety of bird species, including rhinoceros hornbills, macaques, crested serpent eagles and blue-banded kingfishers.
