It is likely that gibbons may also be found in Chiang Rai and Chanthaburi, and that they live in the forested mountainous region running most of the length of the western border of Thailand. Information on the presence of gibbons in the central mountains and in the north-east region is contradictory. During the report period, two small areas (one in Ranong and one at Khao Yai National Park) were surveyed to evaluate gibbon group concentration. Observation indicated that at both sites the average concentration was in the order of 100 acres per group, confirming the estimates made in previous studies. Two isolated forests, again one in Ranong and one at Khao Yai National Park, were also studied; both contained year-round water supplies. The Ranong one was 14 acres in size and contained at least three large gibbons and a baby; the one at Khao Yai was 11 acres in size and had a pair of gibbons with a baby. Thus although the average gibbon concentration is close to 100 acres, gibbons can live and reproduce in much smaller areas. This principle became the basis of a plan for reserve areas for gibbon husbandry. S.Kสาระสังเขป: This study included a survey of the distribution of gibbons in Thailand, an estimate of spacing of groups in forest, and an analysis of the potentiality forest patches as sites for a gibbon conservation programme.
