Watch: Smart Monkey Finds A Mask On The Road And Promptly Covers Face With It
In a widely shared video, a monkey can be seen ambling with a discarded mask disposed on the road.
The whole world is struggling today with the ongoing pandemic and face masks have become our most essential accessory. So much so that even the animals co-habiting the planet have grown accustomed to masks and know exactly what to do with them.
In a widely shared video, a monkey can be seen trying to wear a discarded mask disposed on the road.
The clip was shared by the former basketball player Rex champion on the microblogging site Twitter, with a caption, "If you've already seen a monkey find a mask and promptly put it on its face today then just keep on scrolling."

The video shows a monkey wandering on the streets. The animal stops after he finds a mask lying on the streets, and interestingly, without much time, he put it on his face. It tried to walk away but the mask was all over its eyes, rendering it unable to see.
The monkey stopped and tried to wear the mask again, without much success. The video ended with the monkey utterly confused.
The clip has gone viral on social media with over 2.4 million views and people are amused at the smartness of the animal.
Wearing a mask is so easy, even a monkey can do it.

This could be an instructional video.
He's probably smart enough to have been vaccinated too.

We have to give it to the monkey - that was really smart. Also, a lesson for people who still don't wear a mask and think it isn't important.
Even a monkey knows - just wear a mask.
