Man does a photoshoot with newborn monkey
YEN.com.gh previously reported that a professional animal trainer, Kody Antle, got many people talking as he struck an unusual pose with monkeys.
In the first snaps, a baby monkey was seen on its back as it was surrounded by flowers. In the second photo, Kody stood with older-looking animals that some believed are the newborn's parents.
He captioned the photos with:
"Welcome to the world, little one!"
The post's comment section was filled with hilarious opinions as some wondered why anyone would go to such an extent to celebrate the birth of an animal.
