Slow Monkeys

Posted by Graham Russon (Cape Town, South Africa) on 14 May 2008 in Animal & Insect.

Baboons actually, after the manor house on Sunday, we made our way through Steenberg. On a busy road we saw a traffic sign of a monkey and the word slow. "Ha ha slow monkeys", laughed my wife and I, until around the corner we came across a troop of about 35 baboons all over the road and surrounding trees.

This guy was oblivious to the traffic jam and all the people taking snaps as he contemplated his lunch.
