MONKEY WITH UNCANNY RESEMBLANCE TO MARVEL COMICS’ WOLVERINE

WITH his spiked ears and yellow and blue body, a colourful monkey bears an uncanny resemblance to Marvel Comics’ Wolverine. While the comic book hero, who is a member of the X-Men, is known for his retractable claws and ferocious temper, this Wolf's mona monkey appears much more relaxed as he peacefully sits in a tree. The adorable monkey was photographed in Batu Secret Zoo in Indonesia by Lessy Sebastian. The 51-year-old photographer, of Jakarta, Indonesia, says: “I spotted him from afar just sitting peacefully and eating some food.
