Silvery gibbons are some of the ‘lesser apes’, which differ from great apes (gorillas, chimpanzees, orangutans and humans) by being pair-bonded and smaller, in not building nests, and in some anatomical features where superficially they are closer in appearance to monkeys than great apes. These gibbons have sliver-gray fur which is long and fluffy, and have darker markings on the cap and chest. They have long legs and long arms that have long fingers with reduced thumbs, which are all adaptations for swinging from branch to branch, arm over arm).
