This Photo Of A Monkey Looks So Heartbreaking, But Here"s What"s Really Going On
%When photographer Avinash Lodhi came across a group of monkeys in Jabalphur, India, he decided to take a seat on the ground and observe what they were doing. He also wanted to snap some photos in the hopes of obtaining a few great shots, but he probably had no idea that he"d capture a seriously powerful picture of what appears to be a mother monkey holding her collapsed baby. “It was so quick I didn"t even know what was happening when I took the picture but as soon as I confirmed the image I was silent for an hour,” he said. “This moment is rare, especially with animals.”
While this looks like a heartbroken mother wailing and clutching her dead offspring, Lodhi says the baby had just tripped and fallen, then got up quickly after the photo was taken. Facebook / Rabbit studios -short film unit,tuni.
