Hamadryas Baboons were considered sacred in Ancient Egypt being called Sacred Baboons.

These animals are now extinct from Egypt and are currently found in Ethiopia, Somalia, Saudi Arabia and Yemen.

The males stand out from the females by having beautiful, long silver hair that stretches over their shoulders, referred to as a ‘cape’. When threatened, the males usually yawn, exposing 4cm long canine teeth.

Baboons love to groom each other, which enhances their relationships within their communities called “Troops”.

Hamadryas baboons make a dog-like bark when there is danger nearby.
