Selfie Snapping Monkey

A US court has ruled that a monkey who snapped a selfie on a wildlife photographer's camera does not own the copyright to the image, which became an internet sensation.

An Indonesian monkey who shot to fame after it snapped a grinning selfie -- and sparked a landmark US copyright case -- was named "Person of the Year" Wednesday by the animal rights group that took on the simian's cause.

The saga of a series of "Monkey Selfies" snapped four years ago in the Indonesian wilderness using a camera borrowed from a nature photographer seems to never end. At least it also appears to never get boring.

A rare crested macaque monkey who snapped a well-known, grinning "selfie" should be declared the photo's owner and receive damages for copyright infringement after it was used in a wildlife book, animal rights activists argued in a federal lawsuit filed on Tuesday.
