There's already a monkey selfie created by a wildlife photographer who set up a camera that monkeys could activate to try to get a picture of them. It's embroiled in a copyright dispute over whether the photographer or the monkey owns the photo:

- saagarjha 8y ago> The disputes involve Wikimedia Commons and the blog Techdirt, which have hosted the images following their publication in newspapers in July 2011 over Slater's objections, and People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA), who have argued that the macaque should be assigned the copyright > In April 2018, the appeals court affirmed that animals can not legally hold copyrights and expressed concern that PETA's motivations had been to promote their own interests rather than to protect the legal rights of animals.
