Nonja, a 33-year-old orangutan (and avid photographer) lives in a Vienna zoo and has her own photo gallery documenting her daily life!
The photos are taken with a camera that dispenses raisins as she snaps photographs and then uploaded to the Facebook fan page by her keepers. Nonja has gotten images of her climbing rope, food, and her companion. Naturally, the images are slightly blurry, but she has nonetheless acquired almost 3,000 fans!
Gerhard Kasbauer, a zoo spokesman, told Reuters, "Of course the apes don't care about the pictures, they are just an accidental side product. They know that when they press the button, a raisin pops out."
Apparently, the Vienna zoo set up the project to keep Nonja and her three companions entertained in their enclosure. Pretty neat idea, right?
