Taipei Zoo - Monkey Negotiation

Often, photographing monkeys is about capturing behavior more than aesthetics.  Monkey B, on the right, was in the process of taking a bite of something when Monkey A grabbed his wrist and literally used his rival's hand to stuff his own mouth.  It all happened before Monkey B even knew what was going on.

In the photo below it looks as though Monkey B is at least trying to negotiate before he loses out altogether on his next chance for food...
