Extremely photogenic gorilla takes the internet by storm
Updated | By The Workzone with Barney Simon
A gorilla at Prague Zoo named Richard has made a splash on social media with the fun, model-like poses for the camera.
If you frequent the zoo, you may be one of the people who really enjoy watching gorillas doing their thing.
These animals can be quite entertaining, even if you may feel that not being allowed to feed them puts limits on your interaction.
There are many other things you can do when you visit a gorilla. Dancing, for instance. Or, in the case of Richard from the Prague Zoo, practising your runway photography.

Richard the gorilla loves posing for the camera. Richard's modelling chops were discovered by photographer Lucie Stepnicková, who has been working with the fun-loving primate for ten years. Lucie says: "Richard's unusual look has made him very popular on social media – people seem to think he is quite handsome."
Gorillas may not be able to claim the rights to their own selfies, but that doesn't mean they can't still have fun in front of the camera!
