KIPLING Malaysia, the fashion bag brand and Department of Wildlife and National Parks Peninsular Malaysia PERHILITAN are joining efforts to raise awareness and reduce consumer demand for White-Handed Gibbons (Hybolates Lar) as pets called The Kipling Initiative.

The White-Handed Gibbon is classified as Endangered (EN) on the IUCN Red List and listed on Appendix 1 of Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES) and listed as Totally Protected Species under Second Schedule Wildlife Conservation Act 2010.

KIPLING Malaysia adopted Dan and Cutie, a pair of endangered White-Handed Gibbons at Zoo Negara last year and is conducting activations to promote gibbon conservation where sales of their bags will help to continue to fund the initiative.
