Baboons

Baboons are plentiful inhabitants of the Cape Point region. We were warned to be careful with them because just holding up a camera to take a photo of them looks to them like we are offering them something to eat and they may well take our cameras. The closest we were was when they were alongside the road as we were going past in the van. We stopped to watch them. The dominant males look like pretty tough characters. In the top two photos, you can see baboons in the grass. In the next photo you can see baboon youngsters. And at the bottom is another view of beautiful coast on the east side of the cape peninsula.
