Description This is the second shot of this animal I've featured

What a poser, the alpha male Mandrill.
It took me a long time to capture this guy he doesn’t pose willingly.

The Mandrill (Mandrillus sphinx) is a primate of the Cercopithecidae (Old-world monkeys) family, closely related to the baboons and even more closely to the Drill.

The Mandrill is the world's largest species of monkey. The word mandrill means "man-ape".

great shot. I know they are pain to get a shot of, always turn their backs to you or move to a different spot.
I guess I would to with the goofy tourists taking pictures with the flash through the glass all day and hurting my eyes

Great job getting a photograph of him.. I know how camera shy he is.. and how menacing he can be when you even look at him let alone train your camera on him!
