"Why Me Lord?"

Philadelphia Zoo, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

"Would it spoil some vast eternal plan, if I were a wealthy man?" asked the dramatic
and charismic ape at the Philadelphia zoo, putting his hand up towards the sky, feeling
the light mist and rain on a warm and muggy Philly morning.

Great shot Michael. I wish he was free but at least in the zoo he is safe from poachers and the cruelty of man. V

Hi Michael,

Beautifully captured. This pic is simply one of the best ape photo on pbase. Very funny. Kind of reminded me the billing statement from the 85LII . :) -Voted-
