sathashiv
A colloquial term referring to a black ape species known as Indian Gibbons, which finds its origins in Southern India and now populates small forest regions in parts of Southeast Asia as well. Sathashivs are widely known for their thick, dark, matted hair which serves as camouflage from both predators and prey alike.
Male and female Sathashivs are often distinguished by colour, as male Sathashivs tend to have darker fur compared to their female counterparts.
