A rare image of a monkey riding on a deer's back has gone viral after the U.K. Natural History Museum released it in a preview of its Wildlife Photographer of the Year competition. The photograph, shot by Atsuyuki Ohshima in a Japanese forest, captured the rare — but not unheard-of — interaction between a macaque and a deer."In this case, however, the macaque was a young female, appearing just to be enjoying a free ride," the caption reads.
After judging 49,957 photo submissions from 95 countries, judges chose 100 photos to showcase at the museum, beginning on Oct. 13. The winners of the competition will be announced on Oct. 10. There are an estimated 10,000 to 20,000 deer on the island. There are only about 12,000 people on the island, and in order to control the deer population, there have been periods of culling.
