A mug shot is usually the photographic portrait taken after one is arrested. This Chimp is in Sweetwaters Chimpanzee Sanctuary, where they have been shifted from Congo as a result of the upraise in bush meat trade. Thanks for Jane Goodall for her research, knowledge and passion for animals, which resulted in the foundation of Sweetwaters Chimpanzee Sanctuary in Ol Pejeta conservancy in Kenya.

Now thats an intense look, he reminds me of Ceasar in the movie Planet of the Apes..:-)
Great shot! I always love your compositions. Nice in black and white too!
