A simple meal

Hamadryas baboons have a fluffy coat. Females and young baboons are brown, while adult males have a silver hair on their shoulders and back. Their faces and rump have pink skin with no hair.

 

Grass seeds, root, and bulbs make up the diet of the Hamadryas baboon.

 

The Hamadryas baboon lives in Ethiopia, Saudi Arabia, Somalia and Yemen. It prefers the rocky desert areas and the subdesert regions that have grass.

 

Leopards are the main predator of this baboon.
