Description
Siamongs inflate their throat suck to make their call. The throat acts as an echo chamber to make their call louder. Their call can be heard up to 4 km away. They do this to protect their territory and make the bond between male and female stronger. This pic was taken at Dubbo Taronga Western plains zoo. I hear this huge noise and couldn't worked out which animal it was, so I followed the sound and find him, I was amazed how such a small animal can be so loud ! Amazing sound you never forget !
