NONJA THE ORANGUTAN

VIENNA – An orangutan in an Austrian zoo has been making friends – through Facebook!

Nonja, the 33-year-old orangutan, lives at the Vienna Zoo. She is also online!

The orangutan was given a Samsung ST 1000 that automatically uploads any photos she takes to her official Facebook page. There, fans can look at her many self-portraits, as well as photos of her fellow orangutan companions.

The camera was modified so that every time she takes a photo, it dispenses a raisin. Whether she’s more interested in amateur photography or snacks may never be known, but her fans don’t seem to mind.

Here are a few of her snapshots:

Check out the rest of her photos on her Facebook page.
