This is wonderful news for this species classified as critically endangered. Unfortunately, its natural habitat, the Indonesian rainforests, is the scene of intense deforestation, mainly for agriculture, especially for palm oil production.

The One Million Trees project is a perfect example, which you can also support directly here.
