Chimps and Tourist photograghers

 These chimps at Jacksonville Zoo in Florida just can't get enough of being snapped by tourists


Give us a gurn: Happy chimp

Getting a chimp to smile for the cameras is always gurn to be a tall order but these shots show they are happy to strike a pose for an audience.
One chimp monkeyed around pulling funny faces for its babies, while another stroked its chin, just like Rodin’s The Thinker, as if deep in thought.
Graham McGeorge, 43, of Dumfries in Scotland, took the shots at Jacksonville Zoo while on holiday in Florida.

Big grin: Happy chimp

And captured a bit of animal magic.
Chimps are the closest living relatives to humans, although few people can gurn like this chap.
They are known for their love of sex and have even been known to use it to resolve arguments.
Chimps have also been observed mourning other members of their group after they've died.
