The next stage of evolution may well be upon us after a monkey unscrewed the lid of a water bottle and took a drink. Filmed on a hot day in Bali, Indonesia the video, shot by Australian tourist Dirk Nienaber, shows a monkey interacting with a tour guide, who squirts water at the primate from a hole in a water bottle in a bid to cool it down. As the monkey continues to approach, the man throws the bottle over to it and scarpers with a smirk – as if aware of what the monkey may do next. The monkey interactes with a tour guide, who squirts water at it from a hole in a water bottle in a bid to cool it down . With bottle in hand, the monkey takes its time before attempting to quench its thirst. Shaking its head, it flicks the water from itself and, rather like a human would, lifts a finger to its face to wipe the residue from its eye. It then stands the bottle up on its side and while supporting it with its right hand, casually unscrews the cap with its left – all the while it stares nonchalantly at the camera. The monkey recieves the bottle and holds it in its hands before attempting to quench its thirst . A bystanders gasps as the monkey casually unscrews the cap with its hand and throws it to one side . A bystanders gasps and says: ‘He knows how to open the cap,’ as the monkey chucks it to the side and lifts the bottle to its mouth. Tilting its head back, the primate then begins gulping down the liquid – remarkably spilling very little, although some water is visible dripping down its face. Stopping for a break, the monkey casually holds the bottle in its right hand while posing for the camera. The monkey tilts its head back and begins gulping down the water, spilling very little of the liquid on its face . Before gently wiping its mouth and having another drink of water. The video later pans out slightly to show a number of people standing around watching in awe of the monkey. And concludes with satisfied primate placing the bottle in its mouth and heading off away from the crowd. The monkey stops to take a break, wipes its face and then has another drink before running off with the bottle .
