A rare baby monkey has gingerly stepped into the world at its home in London.



The flame-haired primate, nicknamed Tango, was born at ZSL London Zoo on September 1 to first-time mother Lu Lu and father Neo.
The family resemblance is not immediately clear - both parents have black fur but Tango is bright orange.
The youngster, who is yet to be sexed, spends most of its time snuggled up to its mum but auntie Lee Lee also helps out with the babysitting.



Zookeeper Kathryn Sanders said: "Baby Tango is currently rocking the redhead look, but it won't actually be ginger for very long.
"Its fur will begin to darken at around three months of age, and they are usually completely black by the time they reach six-months-old."
Francois Langurs are one of the world's rarest monkeys, and originate from north east Vietnam and China.
Classed as critically endangered, their populations are declining rapidly because of habitat loss.
