The number of Phayre's leaf monkeys has risen in the county thanks to ecological environment protection efforts and more frequent monitoring of wildlife, said Yang Peiji, who is in charge of the management bureau of the Xiaoheishan Provincial Nature Reserve.
There are 10 groups of about 350 Phayre's leaf monkeys at the nature reserve, Yang added.
