Baboons Crossing the Road

Chacma Baboon
The male, probably the dominant male appears out of the shrubbery to check if the coast is clear.
Apparently we are no threat in the safari vehicle.

In single and double file about 50 baboons frolic past us in the vehicle.
Most appear to be quite young.
The babies are carried on the mothers' back.

A close-up of the same mother and baby combination seen above.
Hopefully the baby will grow into its ears over time.

Most of the younger baboons dash past, engrossed in play
