Taken March 23, 2014 at Nandi Hills
Many say that baby macaques are cute. Those people may not have seen a true infant, hairless and wrinkled, looking–ironically–like an old man.
This one hasn’t even grown to fully look like H. Ross Perot. You see, all young macaques look like H. Ross Perot, and some adult macaques look like Gary Busey.

DAILY PHOTO: Helping Hand or Monkey Bite?: You Decide
Taken on March 24, 2014 at Nandi Hills.
One monkey was hanging off the fascia of Tipu Sultan’s old hunting lodge. The other was either being a helpful monkey–trying to help his brother up–or being a mischievous monkey–trying to make him fall.
You figure out which.
Here’s a photo from moments later.
Still can’t tell?
If you said they were in the middle of a mixed martial arts knock-down-drag-out, you were correct. Here you can see the monkey who had been hanging getting a single-leg take-down on his tormentor.
FYI- For those who think one needs to get all “roided up” for strength building: Note this apparently puny monkey had the upper body strength to pull himself onto a roof while successfully fighting off an attack.

DAILY PHOTO: Crocodile at Peace
Taken in November of 2013 at the Mysore Zoo
There is no smile
worn by a crocodile,
that’ll induce me to pet him.
There’s no grin,
neither wide nor thin,
that extends my treasured limb.
Save your beaming.
It looks scheming.

DAILY PHOTO: Fog Rolls in for a Crab
Taken on Christmas Day on Phuket, Thailand.
This photo turned out a bit otherworldly. It’s a crab on a barnacle-covered rock who is about to be swamped by a boulder-churned slab of white water.
