Hungry: An orangutan at Moscow Zoo manages to get SEVEN apples into its mouth at the same time


This orangutan at Moscow zoo gets to the core of his hunger problem as he chomps down on not one, not two, but seven apples all at once.

The content primate was photographed by martial arts teacher, Olga Dmitrieva, 51, on an outing to the zoo.

He playfully tossed one of the apples in the air before sitting happily and shoving in as many as he could.


Olga said: 'Sometimes the orangutans use apples like balls. This one crammed his mouth full - he seemed to do it for fun.'


Juggling: The orangutan plays with an apple before greedily devouring as many as it can at once


Staring: It seems transfixed on something in the distance as it chews another apple a bit more politely
