These odd-looking monkeys could be straight out of a cartoon with their bright white googly eyes.

Cutting an uncanny resemblance to the novelty features used in arts and crafts, their playful appearance attracts quite a crowd of tourists.

These charming images were taken in Kaeng Krachan National Park, Phetchaburi province, Thailand, by amateur photographer Michael Edward.

Mr Edward, 29, captured the cheeky dusky langur monkeys as they played together in the trees during a three-week wildlife photography tour across Thailand.
