Little Deer meets Little Monkey

View Large on Black

 

A Sambar Deer fawn speaks to a Common Langur, or so it seems. Frankly, I didn't even realize that the monkey was sitting there when I got this image. Got back to the hotel, reviewed the pictures on the computer, and there he was! :)

 

I am told that Langurs and deers have a mutual agreement. Langurs warn the deers of predators, and also keep tearing off leaves and branches to provide additional food to these guys. I do not know what they get in return from the deers. :)
