Black crested macaque is the most unique ape in the world and it is Critically Endangered species at the moment, only very few of them are left. The local people called the ape as ?Yaki?. By looking at this touching image it clearly gives us a message to save them.

Biography
My name is Thomas Vijayan, I am basically an Architect hailing from Kerala, India also known as God?s Own Country, but was born and brought up in Bangalore and later moved to Canada, where I am now settled with my family. I have traveled all the seven continents for photography which is my passion but not my profession.
The big cats have always been my favorite. To me there is nothing called "perfection" in any photography, every click to me is an experience and the more I click I feel I have learned something new out of it, and I give more importance to quality pictures than quantity.
