While in Eritrea i took this shot of a mob of baboons on the road. at one point in the video rocks can be heard falling from the mountain onto the roof of the bus, would welcome comments on what type of baboons they are.

  • Hamadryas Baboon

    I always called them Makakes but I think they're really called Hamadryas Baboons. We came across a group in Eritrea when we went from Asmara to Massawa. They're funny but the alpha male became quite agressive when he thought we we're getting too close to one of the babies. Wikipedia has an article on them.
