This chimp really doesn't like drones.
When a drone was flying around a chimpanzee habitat in at the Burgers' Zoo in the Netherlands, one of the primates went bananas on it.
The zoo used a drone fitted with a GoPro to film the chimpanzees hanging around the trees.
The video starts off by showing the chimps sitting on tree branches that resemble a jungle gym and relaxing on the grass in a serene location near a body of water.
As the drone is capturing their home, one chimp might be thinking please no photos! As the drone flies in his direction, he is ready with a tree branch in hand to go all Planet of the Apes on it.
The chimpanzee smacks down the drone with one strike, it happening so fast the video does a replay.
Again we see the smack down, the drone stumbling down and rolling on the ground.
So we now know that chimps don't like being filmed, but that could be because they prefer selfies instead. With a smirk on his face, another chimp then picks up the camera and holds it up as if he was taking a selfie.
But that's enough monkeying around. After he is done getting up close and personal with the camera, he dramatically mic-drops the drone and goes on its way.
The video already has over 840,000 views since being uploaded on April 10. Watch the chimpanzee smack down the drone below.
