Smile for The Camera
Here are two of the best animal selfies ever taken! There’s actually quite a funny story behind this one! British nature photographer David Slater traveled to Indonesia, befriended a group of wild macaques, and then left some of his camera equipment set up around the forest, hoping that one of the animals might snap something like a selfie.
David was absolutely amazed when he took a look through the camera later on and found these hilarious images of one of his furry pals. The animal in question is a Celebes crested macaque, also known as a crested black macaque or black ape. They’re Old World monkeys that live exclusively in Indonesia on several small islands, living on a diet of fruit, leaves, bugs, and sometimes even small birds.
