The primate looks remarkably lifelike in this series of poses
captured at a Russian zoo.
Photographer Olga Yermolava, who captured the rare and remarkable
moment, said: "I am so happy I managed to capture the lemur’s
expression before it moved. Its pose is so human that it makes a
very funny picture”.
Olga who often frequents the small zoo in Nizhny Novgorod on the
weekends is a keen watcher of the lemurs and is no stranger to them
pulling faces and poses.
“Generally lemurs have very rich facial expressions and it is
always interesting to watch them.”
She said this character reminded her of the charismatic King Julian
from the film Madagascar.
