Amazing creatures aren't they .. Thank you for sharing this video I hope you have a nice day

[@sharity3289]

Absolutely. I love watching their interactions and social hierarchy.

[@MrTim223]

Amazing? According to the narrator at the begining of the video, those baboons spend 70% of their time "grooming" each other. They attract so many parasites that their waking day is spent pulling & eating bugs from others. Also it's amazing how lazy they are - baboons will intentionally follow large animals, like elephants, so they can eat undigested seeds & other bots from the elephants dung. Instead of foraging for those same seeds they would rather sift through elephant shit! So they are teeming with parasites, digging through shit instead of foraging, my what truly amazing creatures!

Those poor female all swelled up looks painful. Not all do that. I wonder why? If you watch the special on animal planet called Serengeti its the best on showing you who they are and how they live and their social lives. It's a 6 part series. And absolutely captivating.

[@izzy_busy_quizzy]

fun fact, i can’t say it is painful for them or not, but the female baboons genitals swell up when she may be in ovulation which goes without saying what that ends up meaning to the male in the group 😂

[@safeysmith6720]

The females with swollen genitals are in heat. It lets the males know. I don’t believe it is painful, because it’s an invitation for sex to eligible males.

[@ashleymckenna2808]

The females are experiencing Estrous. Which basically means they are in heat, and when they are in heat their genitalia becomes bright reddish pink and extremely swollen. It is not painful for the females but I have a personal feeling it might feel uncomfortable physically during this time due to the swelling. This signifies to the male that the female is ready to mate.

If one of those things entered my car I would stab it in the face, or slash its hand & arm when it goes to grab food.

Many babies and juveniles in the group. Possibly over populated area? Mating is their past time. Maybe fixing a few female from being able to have young.

I agree, the best method is to insert a 10mm metal capsule into the baboons brain. That would take care of the overbreeding

[@MrTim223]

At 23:00 the narrator is explaining that the baboons were moving fast, not stopping to forage. Then around 25:00 the narrator says the baboons were moving so fast so they would be 1st to pick through garbage at a picnic site. Think about that - those disgusting vermin would rather eat garbage that is easy to get, instead of taking time to forage and eat in the wild. Baboons will attack children too - if they think a child has food they will rip their clothes to get it. And since baboons are natural bullies & cowards, they tend to attack when there are at least 7-10 baboons. If they stay in the wild, fine because that's where they belong, but any baboon that raids a human area or attacks people should be euthanized immediately.

[@mustafafreesoul18]

0:13 who said they are sacred they are not sacred for us or for the early pagan arabs

[@footmastermilano]

Sacred for the ancient egyptians, as they were considered consprts of the god thoth.

[@phyllisruthmick5391]

In Pharaoh Tutankhamuns burial vault there is an extraordinary mural covering pretty much an entire wall, the mural is of Baboons. I think that is clear evidence that the Baboon was sacred to the ancient Egyptians and or their culture and beliefs.

You have to wonder if they actually understand what each other is saying with how jibberish their language sounds, it really sounds like their words are complete jibberish.

[@MrTim223]

They only understand few basic things while communicating. First and foremost, FOOD. Lesser primates only think of food and eating. Next thing baboons know is RAPE, because they will assault others regardless of gender, and they rarely get consent. And the final thing KILL. Baboons are hideous murder machines and males routinely kill each other, and females, and they tend to grab babbys which are used as shields - yes, baboons pick fights and use babbys as deterrents in the fight they start! Baboons of all types are the least of the lesser primates.

arabic actually makes way more sense than english or any other languages, to the point where if you're a native speaker or learned it for years you could hear a word for the first time and know the meaning because it's a variation of another word like how the word south (where the sun rises in all arabian peninsula) is called "sh'arq" and the sun set is called "shrouq"
