In The Langur Monkeys of Jodphur, narrator Sir David Attenborough visits India where an alpha langur monkey fights off a troop of bachelors across the rooftops in Jodphur. The monkeys thrive in this urban environment because they are fed by people, who revere them for their connection to a Hindu god. This has resulted in a large population increase. This video is excerpted from BBC’s Planet Earth II, a breathtaking documentary series that highlights the natural wonders of our planet.
