Information
Baboons
are only found in Africa. They are the best adapted of
all monkeys to a terrestrial life. Baboons live in a wide
range of habitats including open habitats. But they require
rocky cliffs or tall trees to sleep in at night and access
to water. Only a few are forest dwellers, such as the
Guinea baboon from West Africa. A baboon has a lifespan
of up to 20 to 30 years in captivity.
Baboons eat a wide variety of food, generally whatever
is in abundance. They prefer fruit, but when this is not
available, will eat less nutritious but abundant food.
