Trang 41 The necessity of the topic
Vietnam is country to a rich primate biodiversity, with 27 species andsubspecies, the highest in Southeast Asia However, many species are facingsevere population declines due to habitat loss and hunting, including endemic
species such as the Cat Ba langur (Trachypithecus poliocephalus), the Con Sonlong-tailed macaque (Macaca fascicularis), Delacour’s langur (Trachypithecus
delacouri), and the Tonkin snub-nosed monkey (Rhinopithecus avunculus).
Notably, Trachypithecus francoisi distributed in northern Vietnam and
southern China, is also at risk of population decline This endangered statusplaces the species on the brink of extinction, particularly as the effects ofclimate change continue to intensify Despite legal protection, the population of
Trachypithecus francoisi continues to dwindle Recent studies in Tuyen Quang
province indicate that the region harbors the largest population in Vietnam, yetassessing exact numbers is challenging due to the species’ mobility and elusivenature Specific research and conservation measures are urgently needed forthis species, especially in Lam Binh, Tuyen Quang, where knowledge about itsecological characteristics and habitat remains limited.

CHAPTER 1: LITERATURE REVIEW
This dissertation delves into eight key aspects related to the research topic,including: Research findings on the biological characteristics of
Trachypithecus francoisi; studies on the ecology, social structure, behavior,
and diet of various langur species, including Trachypithecus francoisi; research
on woody; studies on vegetation on limestone mountains; adverse factorsaffecting the habitat and development of langurs; primate survey methods;studies on the MaxEnt predictive modeling; and characteristics of the studyarea From 2009 to 2011, surveys conducted in northern Vietnam identified
five groups of Trachypithecus francoisi across three locations (Ba Be National
Park, Bac Me Nature Reserve, and Than Xa - Phuong Hoang Nature Reserve),with a total of 26 individuals However, the population of this species isdeclining alarmingly due to hunting, while research on the species remainslimited Existing studies primarily provide an overview of human impacts onhabitat and biodiversity but lack detailed and systematic investigation The
study and conservation of Trachypithecus francoisi require investment in
manpower, time, and rigorous scientific methods GIS and MaxEnt technologyhave been successfully applied to identify suitable habitats for wildlife species,supporting sustainable conservation efforts Research findings on the biological
characteristics and diet of Trachypithecus francoisi worldwide provide the
methodological foundation and biological indicators necessary for furtherresearch These findings serve as crucial input data for the dissertation'sdevelopment of monitoring content and for comparison with the research

CHAPTER 3: RESEARCH RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
3.1 Some characteristics of the Francois' langur population in the study area
3.1.1 Population size
Observations from 2018 to 2021 indicate a trend of increasing individualnumbers, with 124 individuals in 2018 (Le Trong Dat, 2018), 126 individualsin 2019 (PRCF Organization), 133 individuals in 2020 (Le Khac Quyet and LeAnh Tu, 2020), and 156 individuals in 2021 Among these, there are 122adults, 23 juveniles, and 11 infants

Figure 3.2 shows that a total of 156 François' langurs, there are 122 adults,
23 juveniles, and 11 infants (infants were observed throughout the year, withtheir fur color changing from reddish-yellow to black over approximately 4months, and they were most commonly seen between January and July).Among the 122 adults, there are 17 adult males, 34 adult females, and 71 adultswhose sex has not been accurately determined Therefore, the number of males(17 individuals) is smaller than that of females (34 individuals), with a male-to-female ratio of 1:2 The number of adults (122 individuals) exceeds that ofjuveniles (23 individuals), with an adult-to- juveniles ratio of 4.3:1.Additionally, the juveniles-to-infant ratio is 1:2.1.
Trang 9The number of individuals by sex and age
Figure 3.2 The population size of Trachypithecus francoisi by sex and age class
In the population of 156 Trachypithecus francoisi, the species is divided
into 16 groups and 2 solitary individuals, with the largest groupconsisting of 17 individuals and the smallest group having 1 individual(Table 3.1 in the thesis).
3.1.3 Social structure
The population of Trachypithecus francoisi in Lâm Bình is organized into
the following group types: (1) Group Size 10-17 Individuals: This groupconsists of 1-3 adult males, 4-7 adult females, 2-4 juveniles, and 1-2 infants(Figure 3.4 in the thesis) (2) Group Size 6-10 Individuals: A family unitcomprising one adult male, 1-3 adult females, 0-3 juveniles, and 0-2 infants(Figure 3.5 in the thesis) (3) Group with Multiple Females and Infants: Thisgroup includes 3-4 adult females and 3-4 infants (Figure 3.6 in the thesis) (4)Small Group Size 2-5 Individuals: Consisting entirely of adults, including 1-2males and 2-4 females, with or without 1 infant (Figure 3.7 in the thesis).
Research findings indicate that the social structure of Trachypithecus
francoisi is highly cohesive, with a clear role for the dominant individual.
Foraging activities occur twice daily, in the morning and afternoon, with amidday rest period Peak foraging intensity is observed from early morninguntil around 10:00 AM and from 2:00 PM to 4:30 PM Daily activity patternsvary with the season; during hot seasons, the langurs leave their sleeping sitesearlier, return later, and have longer midday breaks In contrast, during coldseasons, they begin foraging later and return to their sleeping sites earlier Thegroup’s activities are generally quiet, producing only occasional "ẹc, ẹc" and
continuous "oọc, oọc" vocalizations The sounds of Trachypithecus francoisiare very similar to those of Trachypithecus delacouri, Trachypithecus
hatinhensis, and Trachypithecus laotum.
3.1.4 Habitat of Trachypithecus francoisi in Lam Binh.
Trang 10ArcGIS 10.2 software and confirmed sightings of the species during the studyperiod From this area of 1,372.95 hectares, the core habitat, which accounts
for 75% of the recorded Trachypithecus francoisi sightings, is approximately
750.53 hectares The remaining 622.42 hectares make up the peripheral habitat,accounting for 25% of the sightings (Figure 3.8 and Table 3.2 in the thesis).
3.1.4.2 Habitat use
Across the total distribution area of approximately 1,372.95 hectares andthe core area of approximately 750.53 hectares, 16 groups were identified, eachwith its distinct home range and habitat use patterns Overlap of home rangesbetween neighboring groups is quite common, ranging from 50% to 65%, withsome overlaps reaching 75% to 80% due to feeding, movement, and socialactivities According to Kirkpatrick (2007), the home range overlap amongneighboring groups of Asian leaf monkeys ranges from 0% to 100%.
Comparing with other species of the genus Trachypithecus, T poliocephalusshows a home range overlap of 10% to 24% (Harrison, 1986), T francoisi 1%to 83% (Hu, 2011), and T germaini 60% (Le, T.H, 2019) In this study, thehome range overlap of T francoisi is between 50% and 80% However, the
core areas of different groups do not overlap Additionally, the home range sizeis larger in the dry season than in the rainy season This can be explained bythe fact that during the rainy season, vegetation grows well, making food easierto find, whereas in the dry season, with less foliage and reduced foodavailability, the langurs tend to move horizontally and cover longer distances,leading to a larger overall home range compared to the rainy season.
3.1.5 Activity budget of selected Trachypithecus francoisi
Observations conducted 32 times over a total of 768 hours on four
Trachypithecus francoisi groups (Groups 1, 2, 6, and 7) indicate that these
primates are active from early morning, starting at 5:15 AM during summerand around 6:00 AM in winter However, during heavy rainfall, they may leavetheir roosts later Their daily activities typically conclude in the late afternoon,between 5:30 PM and 6:30 PM The time allocated for various activities suchas moving, feeding, resting, and social interactions varies significantly Figure3.10 illustrates the activity time budget, showing that the monkeys spend morethan half of their daily time resting, followed by over 20% of their time feedingand more than 10% moving Other activities account for less than 10% of theirtotal active time.

Figure 3.3 Activity time budget diagram of Trachypithecus francoisi
Table 3.4 reveals that the activity time budget of Trachypithecus francoisi
is similar to that of other species within the genus, with a significant portion oftime devoted to feeding and resting However, the ratio of time spent on theseactivities varies between species, potentially due to differences in habitat andthe availability of food resources Monkeys may need to allocate more time tofeeding and foraging if food availability is insufficient Conversely, theextended rest periods and limited time spent on movement and social activitiesalign with the genus's digestion process and energy conservation strategy.
