Greedy: This cheeky chap is well on the way to having his five a day - after stealing an entire meal of carrots and chomping his way through the whole lot
This greedy chimpanzee is well on the way to having his five-a-day - after stealing an entire meal of carrots and chomping his way through the whole lot.
After the mammoth meal was thrown in for him and his friends by zoo keepers, the greedy animal proceeded to collect them all before dashing off to eat them on his own. But there were so many he could barely hold them all - and had to stuff half of them in his mouth as he didn't want to leave them behind.
Caught on camera: The hilarious moment was captured by keen photographer Susi Fischer, 45, who couldnt believe her eyes while on a trip to Neuwied Zoo in October
When one fell out his mouth he wasn't prepared to leave it behind and stopped before picking it up with his foot.
He then ran off and scoffed his haul into his mouth before he could be challenged.
The hilarious moment was captured by keen photographer Susi Fischer, 45, who couldn't believe her eyes while on a trip to Neuwied Zoo in Germany last month.
Time to eat: Ms Fischer: 'He scooped up the lot and ran off with them all for himself. The others didn't seem too annoyed, or at least they didn't show it as he was the alpha male'
Susi, from Weisenheim am Sand, Germany, said: 'It was just feeding time like any other day only he must he much have been more hungry than usual.
'He scooped up the lot and ran off with them all for himself. The others didn't seem too annoyed, or at least they didn't show it as he was the alpha male.
'It was really funny so I started snapping away with my camera. I don't think I'll ever see something this funny again.'
Quick: In a rush to get them away from everyone else the chimpanzee dropped one out his mouth and picked it up with his toes
