Fuuny Images Show Monkeys Building A Fire, lighting it with match before toasting marshmallows

Resourceful long-tailed macaques in Thailand use human hairs plucked from tourists to floss between their teeth (centre). Tonight the monkeys will be seen in the first episode of a three-part documentary on BBC1 called Monkey Planet. It will see zoologist and presenter Dr George McGavin travel the globe to seek out the most interesting primates in the wild.

 There's Kanzi the Illinois-based bonobo, who can cook fry-ups on fires he has built (clockwise from top left), lighting piles of broken tree branches with a match. And to satisfy a sweet tooth, the dexterous primate toasts even uses his homemade fire to toast marshmallows he has skewered on a twig.
