	Baboon - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Baboons are terrestrial (ground dwelling) and are found in savanna, open woodland and hills across Africa.
		Baboons in captivity have been known to live up to 45 years, while in the wild their life expectancy is about 30 years.
		In baboons males leave their birth group, usually before they reach sexual maturity, whereas females are 'philopatric' and stay in the same group their whole life.

	Savanna Baboon
		Color: brindled, olive brown (olive baboon), yellowbrown (yellow baboon), reddish brown (Guinea baboon), or greenish brown with dark lower limbs (chacma baboon); nose, lips, ears, hands, and feet fl; callosities, rump, and scrotum colored like face, shiny and often with purplish tinge in adults (pink in Guinea baboon).
		Perhaps most useful for understanding what goes on in a baboon troop is the knowledge that, internally, baboons are competing to attain and maintain dominance-females of different matrilines as well as males-and that externally, the troop has to compete with other troops for the same resources while defending itself against predators.
		Baboon troops are as small as 8 and as large as 200 animals, but typically include 30 to 40 members, half of them immature.

	Ugly Baboon
		With the true baboons we come to the most hideous and repulsive-looking members of the monkey tribe, their repulsive appearance being only equalled by the fierce and untamable disposition of several of the group.
		While agreeing with the gelada baboon in the great length of their stouts, the true baboons are readily distinguished by the nostrils being placed at the very extremity of their snout; indeed, in the Arabian baboon they actually project slightly beyond the upper lip, as is the case in most clogs.
		The Guinea baboon is characterized by the uniformly reddish-brown color of its fur, which is washed with a yellowish tinge, more especially upon the head, shoulders, back, and limbs; the cheeks and throat being paler, and the whiskers fawn-colored.

		Because their food is so sparsely distributed, baboons often travel long distances, about 6-20 km a day on a home range of up to 60 sq km.
		Because they share their sleeping site and often their foraging home ground too, baboons are not territorial, although subgroups avoid each other as they forage.
