This jungle, which surrounds Angkor Wat in Cambodia, has come alive again.

Hunting had almost entirely destroyed its gibbons and other populations.

However, charity Wildlife Alliance is successfully reintroducing the pileated gibbon.

There's now a growing population, says charity director Nick Marx.

Pileated gibbons are the most endangered gibbon species.

Their populations have plummeted due to the loss of land to agriculture and the cutting down of trees for business.

Poverty's also pushed people to hunt the animals illegally for meat.

In 1992, Angkor Wat became a world heritage site.

The location's protected by law and this protection includes the forests that surround it.

40 animal species have been reintroduced to the forests around Cambodia's most visited tourist site.

Wildlife Alliance hopes this will further encourage tourism and educate people on the importance of nature conservation.

Its aim is for tourism, local conservation and education to save the forests and its wildlife.

Moeurn Sarin's delighted with the progress.

Marx is proud of the project's success, which brings together Cambodia's cultural and natural heritage.
