"Thereafter, on hearing Angada, all the leaders among the monkeys, Gaja, Gavaksha, Gavaya, Sarabha, Gandhamadana, Mainda, Dvivida, Sushena and Jambavan as well expressed one after the other their capability for leaping.

Note: Each of the monkey leaders declares the distance they can fly -- Jambavan resolves not to send Angada but send Hanuman instead to cross."
