Great. Now that you posted that image here, we're going to hear from that monkey's lawyers. That's a great photo, though. The photos were taken during a 2011 trip to Sulawesi, Indonesia, with an unattended camera owned by Slater. So Naruto, the monkey, picked up the camera himself and snapped the photo? That's great! I love it!

Good call. Ducking litigious monkeys by instead referring people to the link. This is how Planet of the Apes really starts. With attorneys and selfies. There's a prequel in there somewhere.
