Olive Baboon
Papio anubis
-0.409502, 36.1111
Field Notes
Description:
Like other baboons, the olive baboon has a long, pointed, dog-like muzzle.[5] In fact, along with the muzzle, the animal's tail (38–58 cm) and four-legged gait can make baboons seem very canine.
Habitat:
Found in 25 countries throughout Africa, extending south from Mali to Ethiopia and to Tanzania. It inhabits savannahs, steppes, and forests
Notes:
I spotted a huge troupe of Olive Baboons all over the road and in the trees just as we entered Lake Nakuru National Park.
