Kinabatangan River

The lower Kinabatangan River is associated with the peculiar shaped nose proboscis monkey, a funny looking creature with pot-bellies and pendulous noses. It is also abundant with birdlife such as hornbills, egrets, storm storks, oriental darters and eagles. The area is rich with other forms of primates including macaque, leaf monkeys and orang utans.
