Urbanization has drastically altered natural habitats, forcing non-human primates (NHPs) to adapt to human-modified environments. This study examines one such adaptation undertaken by free-ranging Hanuman langurs residing in Dakshineswar, a temple area and a tourist hub in West Bengal. Our observations reveal that they have come up with solicitation behaviors resembling human begging wherein they ask for food from nearby humans using various gestures. Notably, we identified seven distinct 'begging' gestures, with those involving embracing human legs and pulling their clothes having strong correlation with successful outcome. Moreover, adult female langurs predominantly initiate such gestures, with successful solicitation events peaking during evening sessions. The findings underscore langurs' adaptive capacity to exploit anthropogenic resources, where they have started to associate human beings as their food source. This study sheds light on primate behavior in urban landscapes, adding further evidence to the complex dynamics of human-monkey interactions.
