A Gelada by Marius Coetzee
This incredible image of a Gelada was taken by ORYX CEO Marius Coetzee on a photographic tour to one of his most favorite destinations, Ethiopia.
The Gelada, sometimes called the Gelada baboon and Bleeding-heart baboon, is a species of Old World monkey found only in the Ethiopian Highlands, with very large populations in the Semien Mountains. Their relaxed behavior around people make them a favorite amongst wildlife photographers. Geladas have several adaptations for their terrestrial and graminivorous (grass-eating) lifestyle. They have small, sturdy fingers adapted for pulling grass and narrow, small incisors adapted for chewing it. They live at altitudes ranging from 1800-4400 meters above sea level.For more info about tours in Ethopia you are welcome to visit www.oryxphotography.com
