Gloucestershire (UK): A Gloucestershire photographer’s request to remove an animal selfie has been refused by Wekepdia because a monkey is said to have taken the picture.
The photographer called David Slater was on a trip to Indonesia when an endangered crested black macaque grabbed his camera and started taking hundreds of pictures.
