San Diego Zoo Baboon Enclosure 4K with happy guitar music
The San Diego Zoo baboon enclosure is one of the largest and nicest enclosures at the zoo. It is located in Africa Rocks, which is to the right as you come into the zoo and just past the Outback.
Once revered by Ancient Egyptians as representatives of the Egyptian god of learning, hamadryas baboons are also referred to as Sacred Baboons. These hardy Old World monkeys display complex social behaviors, and can live in troops of several hundred individuals. Though currently extinct in Egypt, these monkeys can be found in large populations in Ethiopia, Somalia, Saudi Arabia, and Yemen. In fact, no other kind of baboon resides as far north as hamadryas baboons. The remarkable silver manes and pink faces of adult males add to the unique nature of these intelligent primates.
Hamadryas baboons are large-bodied monkeys with a strong build and a dog-like muzzle. Both males and females have brown or light gray fur. While the females have hairless black and brown faces, the male hamadryas baboon has a distinctive mantle (mane) of long silvery hair and a bright pink face and backside. These baboons sport a relatively short, tufted tail that is not prehensile.
Hamadryas baboons are diurnal, meaning that they are active during the day. After awaking around sunrise, troops of several hundred baboons will come together to monkey around. This includes chasing, playing, and social grooming within their One Male Unit (OMU) social group. Afterward, their work begins. The troop leaves the sleeping site, breaks off into smaller groups called bands, and the bands separate into OMUs to forage for food. The troop reunites in the afternoon for a water break, especially during dry times. Then, it’s back to more foraging in OMU formations. As the sun sets, the groups return to the sleeping site, and the monkeys coalesce once again for more social grooming before it is time for bed.
Although staring contests and lip-smacking may seem like trivial, if not amusing, ways of interacting with our friends, these behaviors have completely different meanings to hamadryas baboons. In fact, staring is considered a threat behavior! Other threat behaviors include tension yawns, during which a baboon’s canine teeth are clearly exposed, as well as head bobbing. But fear not, these baboons have behaviors known to comfort one another as well. Social grooming is extremely important for building relationships. Teeth-chattering and lip-smacking are considered reassurance behaviors, and are usually performed by dominant males as a sign of comfort. Dominant males may also produce a two-phase bark to ward of predators and other male baboons.
Baboon's Amazing Leap of Faith #shorts
Baboon's amazing leap of faith to from the highest branch of a short tree attempting to grab some food. Like, share, and subscribe.
The crowd was waiting breathless to see the leap, which seemed very dangerous. The baboon's perch was very precarious. I have never seen a baboon leap between tries like other monkeys. Would he make it? Was it worth it. After several minutes of posturing up for the leap, he sat down and decided to take a leak. The then did the smart thing and climbed down from the tree and leapt from the ground to grab the food he wanted. Even though we didn't get the leap we were waiting for, it was still a sight to see.
