A monkey selfie has caused a confusion on the internet following a debate over who owns the image. A photographer named David Slater was taking photos of monkey’s when one of them grabbed the camera and took a selfie of itself. Now this selfie has become famous with a number of people using the image without paying for it. They say that because the monkey took the photo no human owns the copyright. Normally professional photographers charge people for using snaps they've taken because they own something called a copyright. Therefore, he doesn't own them. As you can imagine Slater is very angry and wants the site to take the image down.
