This is the hilarious moment an orangutan sarcastically clapped at a woman who tried to throw it a banana.

Holidaymaker Huahua bought the fruit for the primate, but when she tossed the snack, it fell into the water inside its enclosure at the Phnom Penh Safari in Cambodia on September 10.

Footage shows the animal briefly looking at the banana in the water. Moments later, it applauded her, causing the visitor's friends to laugh at the animal's reaction.

The filmer jokingly said: 'I will never buy bananas for monkeys to eat. I'll just eat the bananas for them to watch.'

Studies have found that primates are observant and can mimic the behaviour they see in humans.
