Monkey selfie
The monkey selfies are a series of images taken by a female Celebes crested macaque using equipment belonging to the nature photographer David Slater. The posting of the images on Wikimedia Commons was at the center of a dispute in mid-2014 over whether copyright could be held on artworks made by non-human animals. Slater's claim of copyright on the images was disputed by several scholars and organizations, based on an understanding that copyright was held by the creator, and that a non-human creator (not being a legal person) could not hold copyright. In December 2014, the United States Copyright Office stated that works created by a non-human are not subject to U.S. copyright.
==Background==
In 2011, nature photographer David Slater traveled to Indonesia to take photographs of the Celebes crested macaques. During his shoot, David set up the camera on a tripod, and deliberately left the remote trigger for the camera accessible to the macaque.〔 A female macaque pressed the remote trigger and took several photographs. Most of these photographs were unusable, but some were clear photographs of the macaque, which Slater later distributed as a "monkey's selfie".〔 Slater licensed the image to the Caters News Agency, under the presumption that he held copyright to the photo; Slater argued that he had "engineered" the shot, and that "it was artistry and idea to leave them to play with the camera and it was all in my eyesight. I knew the monkeys were very likely to do this and I predicted it. I knew there was a chance of a photo being taken."〔
