Nayan Khanolkar’s (India) camera trap attracts the attention of curious langur monkeys.
These langurs discovered Nayan’s camera trap before he even had a chance to switch it on.
He’d been hoping to photograph tigers in the forest near Chandrapur. Instead, he spent most of his time fixing gear dismantled by monkeys that had been watching from the trees.
Langurs are a familiar sight in western India, especially in urban environments. Here, they’re partly protected because of their sacred status in Hinduism.
But relations can be fraught, particularly when they raid crops or pester tourists for food.
