The impact of protection status, local people’s awareness and hunting pressure on conservation of delacour’s langur (Trachypithecus delacouri) in Northern Vietnam

During 2019 and 2020, 14 areas in Northern Vietnam were surveyed for Delacour’s langur Trachypithecus delacouri (Osgood, 1932) to confirm the status of distribution, estimated populations and intensity of hunting pressure. People from elected local authorities, as well as other individuals, were interviewed to determine their awareness of the langur’s conservation. These data were combined for statistical analysis.
