Even the monkeys are laughing as Europe’s zookeepers share their funniest photos of the year

Zookeepers from across Europe have shared their funny animal photos of the year in an annual competition.

The amazing pictures came from zoos and wildlife parks across the UK, France and Denmark.

The informal competition is run by Facebook page Zoo Keepers Europe, which has 14,500 members from across the continent.

Some of the UK’s best entries included a cheekily laughing Barbary macaque in Colchester Zoo, a shocked lemur from West Lothian, and a stunning snow leopard from the Scottish Highlands.

Cheeky smiles are the specialty of Sagro the Barbary macaque, who lives at Colchester Zoo. His zookeeper Lisa Davis shot this hilarious picture of him grinning into the camera
