Crested Black Macaque Monkey Named As News Of The World Editor
WHEN wildlife photographer David Slater left his camera on a trip to North Sulawesi, Indonesia, one of a group of crested black macaque monkeys took this self-portrait. Says David:
“One of them must have accidentally knocked the camera and set it off because the sound caused a bit of a frenzy. At first there was a lot of grimmacing with their teeth because it was probably the first time they had ever seen a reflection. The sound got his attention and he kept pressing it. At first it scared the rest of them away but they soon came back – it was amazing to watch.”
So. That’s the photographer sorted. Now we just need a few monkeys who can type, a parrot to do the PR and rabbits for the content.
