Shrinking, fragmented habitat The langur is endemic to Bhutan and the north-eastern Indian state of Assam. Conservation plan needed Despite its endangered status, there is no comprehensive conservation plan for the golden langur across its entire habitat, or specifically within Bhutan.
Villages need to be more involved in conservation efforts, Wangchuk argued. New guidelines to protect biodiversity More recently, Bhutan has taken steps to improve the way it monitors biodiversity and the socioeconomic status of people who depend on biodiversity for their livelihoods.

We also identified seven population threats: 1 electrocution, 2 road kill, 3 road injury, 4 dog kill, 5 retaliatory killing, 6 illegal pet keeping, and 7 hybridization with capped langurs. To immediately mitigate threats to golden langurs, we recommend: a installing speed limit signage and speed breakers with strict enforcement of speed limits; b installing insulated electric cables and fencing around power transformers; and c reducing and restraining domestic dog populations.

A grassland with scattered trees or scattered clumps of trees, a type of community intermediate between grassland and forest. See also Tropical savanna and grassland biome.
Vegetation is made up mostly of grasses, the height and species diversity of which depend largely on the amount of moisture available.
