Copycat! Hilarious moment when a primate takes a zoo visitor’s phone and spins it around to film her panicking
This is when a cheeky monkey grabs a zoo visitor’s phone and turns it around to film her.
Gracey Sango, 21, and her family were visiting Jorge Town amusement park in Davao de Oro, Philippines, on Monday when they encountered a pack of monkeys.
Everything seems to be fine when Mrs. Sango gently gives the monkey a little food.
But in a flash, the monkey snatches the phone from her, causing a moment of sheer panic.
You can hear the 21-year-old screaming and jumping up and down as she begs the monkey to return her phone.

Finally, one of the other zoo visitors managed to retrieve the phone to save Mrs. Sango.
You can then hear the group laughing as they realize what just happened to them.
This certainly wasn’t the first time a cheeky ape had come into contact with a person.
Earlier this month, a hilarious video was posted showing a A stubborn spider monkey climbed on an American tourist and pulled down her T-shirt.
As the animal clambers down the woman’s legs with its prehensile tail and attaches itself to the tourist’s shirt, panic soon ensues when she tells her friend, “I don’t know what to do, all of them. I’m afraid.’
In the Philippines, the three most common monkey species are the crab-eating macaque, the common long-tailed macaque, and the Philippine long-tailed macaque.
Despite the fact that it is illegal to keep monkeys as pets in the Philippines, many people still do.
The rare macaque is said to be endemic to the Philippines and is considered an endangered species.
