 chappies have had the crowds in stitches at Hagenbeck Zoo, Hamburg, this week.

They cannot sit still for a second - unless it's to feed or have a cuddle. A zoo spokesman said: "They are our very own comedians.

"The only time they stop climbing and running rings around all the adults is when they want something to eat or need a hug from mum."

Sounds like they could be primates for life.
