That guy above looks like he’s been well and truly caught with his hands in the cookie jar.
The photo, taken by Roie Galitz and dubbed ‘Space Man’, shows some kind of primate on the prowl, and is one of the snaps that made it through the first cut of the 2019 Comedy Wildlife Photography Awards.
Last year’s winners were a hoot, so we can expect plenty of competition in the months to come. For now, let’s just enjoy that image above, and seven more below, with the help of Forbes:

That should help ease the pain of it somehow only being Tuesday.
