It is hard to guess what a Black-footed gray langur weights. But we have the answer:
An adult Black-footed gray langur (Semnopithecus hypoleucos) on average weights 10.03 kg (22.1 lbs).
The Black-footed gray langur is from the family Cercopithecidae (genus: Semnopithecus). When reaching adult age, they grow up to 65.5 cm (2′ 2″).
As a reference: An average human weights in at 62 kg (137 lbs) and reaches an average size of 1.65m (5′ 5″). Humans spend 280 days (40 weeks) in the womb of their mother and reach around 75 years of age.
The black-footed gray langur (Semnopithecus hypoleucos) is an Old World monkey, one of the species of langurs. This, like other gray langurs, is a leaf-eating monkey found in south India.
