Lar gibbon fur colors, varying from black and dark, brown to light brown, sandy colors. The hands and feet were white, with a white hair ring around his black face. Males and females can be all variants of color, and sex is also not different in size. Gibbons are brachiators, pushing themselves in the forest by swinging their bodies with the help of hands from branch to branch. They have long arms and relatively short legs. The tail does not function as the type of ape in general.

Gibbon lar is spread in Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar and Thailand. Their historical range extended from southwest China to Thailand and south of Burma to the entire Malay Peninsula tropical forest. In Indonesia there are on the island of Sumatra and Kalimantan. In the last few decades, Lar gibbon is likely extinct in China, but it is suspected to still exist in southwestern Yunnan.
Gibbon larvae usually live in lowland forests, although in fact some live in the highlands, deciduous forests mixed with bamboo, and seasonal pine forests. They are not usually found higher than 1200 meters above sea level.
The lar gibbon can be found alive with other primates, such as Orangutan (Pongo pygmaeus), Siamang (S. syndactylus), Pileated owa (Hylobates pileatus), Lutung purple face (Trachypithecus spp.), Lutung Thomas (Presbytis Thomasi), Loris (Nycticebus coucang) and some monkeys (Macaca spp.).
Wild, Lar Gibbon eats a wide variety of foods, including figs and other small fruits, sweet fruits, liana fruits, fruit trees and seeds, as well as young leaves, buds and flowers, new buds, vines, buds wine, and insects, including mantid and wasps, and even birds' eggs.
