Most people bend over backwards to keep children entertained, but this baboon show us how it’s done. The energetic yellow baboon performs an impressive series of backflips – much to the delight of a baby monkey.

Marc said: “It went on for over 15 minutes, and it was a joy to witness. I just sat and laughed.
