Monkeys and human beings are close relatives, is no secret. Their antics are quite refined as compared to other animals. We've seen them to extremely human-like things with ease - like peeling a banana, eating ice-cream off a stick like it was no big deal and even sitting cross-legged.
But this guy here, has a face that is eerily very human. Probably more than it should be. Nope, we are not kidding.
Take a look.?
It looks like a dude who is persistently in a state of shock.?
Photos and videos of this monkey with a human-looking face have gone viral in China. The monkey is an 18-year-old resident of the Tianjin Zoo and has become an internet sensation.?
"Are you sure this is not the zookeeper?" asks one person on Weibo, according to a translation by the Daily Mail. "It's the expression that makes me laugh! It looks lost!" comments another Weibo user.
"Whenever there's food, he always eats first. His favourites are coconuts, strawberries, bananas and cherries" the DailyMail quoted a zookeeper as saying.?
This monkey is a black-capped capuchin which is native to Central and South America.
Creepy or cute? Which one is it, people?
