Seems that a few weeks back, a US District Judge ruled that a macaque monkey called Naruto does NOT in fact own his infamous selfie. The Judge said, "While Congress and the president can extend the protection of law to animals as well as humans, there is no indication that they did so in the Copyright Act."
