KOTA KINABALU: September 1 is World Primate Day, and the Sabah Wildlife Department (SWD) wishes to remind the public of the importance of these species.
SWD director Mohd Soffian Abu Bakar said that while the presence of primates was often seen as troublesome and could sometimes cause distress in communities, it was essential to recognise the vital role they play in maintaining healthy forests and ecosystems.
