Monkey's rare selfie!

The Dhaka Times Desk Selfie has become very popular nowadays. More or less everyone is sharing selfies on social media. Interestingly, monkeys are not far behind. They are also sharing selfies. It is surprising but the fact is true.

A female monkey takes the first selfie in a very natural way with her teeth out. He would have been happy if he knew that his picture has been viewed millions of times on the internet.

The incident took place in Sulaysey Island. This monkey took the first selfie on the camera of award-winning British wildlife photographer David Slater. David went to the island to capture the life of this black crested monkey on camera. At first the animals were scared by the flash of the camera but later became very normal. They carried around David's belongings. Even removed the camera. They also mastered how to take pictures.

To see how, David props up the camera with a tripod Stan so the monkeys can't move it. Later he moved away. To his surprise, he noticed that the monkeys were taking pictures of themselves. Most of the pictures were taken of female monkeys, but a male monkey was in control. About a hundred photographs were taken. Of these, only four clear images were found.

Later, when David published the pictures on the Internet, it caused a stir. In the feedback, they said that the pictures made them laugh a lot. The problem is that the images are not copyrighted by David. Because the monkeys picked them up. So he was deprived of receiving a lot of money. But David has no regrets about it. If he got money, he would give it to the Wild Animal Protection Committee.

No matter how much the selfies bring laughter, hearing the true story of this innocent animal's life will make everyone sad. Humans hunt these vultures for meat. Currently, there are 40,000 to 60,000 monkeys in the country. About 801 TP3T monkeys have died out in the last forty years. The male monkey who took the picture was rescued by David from a gruesome trap. He took away only one pack of cigarettes in exchange. Their life value is so low.

David Slater, 49, has been photographing wildlife for the past 15 years. It is a different story in his life. A cameraman has to press the button millions of times to get a picture that moves people's minds. So he thanked and thanked these monkeys. He is looking forward to go to that country again.

David is working hard to save these innocent monkeys. Besides appealing to all concerned to come forward, he is trying hard to create awareness among the common people.

One thing is clear in this selfie incident. Animals have a lot in common with humans. Their intelligence is also high. Many animals have become extinct from the earth. These monkeys may also disappear at some point. Then they will only regret seeing this selfie taken by them.
