douc langurHello, my name is Pygathrix Nemaeus, but please don't call me Pyg for short. I would prefer the name Nem.

      I am a red-shanked Douc Langur. If you think I look sad, you're right. It's because my species is endangered. We are colobine monkeys who live in south central Viet Nam and parts of neighboring Laos. We are threatened throughout our limited range by habitat destruction and hunting. It is horrible to think that people kill us to eat us, or to use our body parts to prepare their worthless traditional medicines.

     Some of us survive in parks and nature reserves. The wildlife laws established to protect us and other threatened species are too often poorly enforced in the face of lucrative and illegal wildlife trade.

Julian 2002 Sep 17 — ANTE DIEM XV CALENDAS OCTVBRIS MMDCCLV A.V.C
Explanation of various calendars


     This day was probably the birthday of Augustus, the most revered of all the Roman emperors. On this day in the year DCCLXVII A.V.C. (14 AD) the Senate decreed him the highest honor, deification, or elevation to the status of a god, and consecrated temples in his name. The early Christians ridiculed this custom, but eventually adapted it by recognizing certain humans as saints, and consecrating churches in their names, because of their spiritual, not political, power, chiefly by the example of a holy life.
