Default Monkey selfie photographer says he's broke: 'I'm thinking of dog walking'

Seems strange that the photographer has no rights at all on that image.
After all he spent all the money to travel to Indonesia, set up the
scene, risked his expensive camera by handing it over to the monkey,
then waded though the countless images to find the good one, edited it
etc.
