A video still from my little camera just before it was snatched out of my hands by a very curious chimpanzee...
...who managed to take a photo of himself before smashing my camera to pieces. One of the rangers offered the chimpanzee a banana in exchange and he fell for it, thankfully.
When filming with apes and monkeys its very important that you protect them from possible flu or colds that you can transmit to them.
