I love baboons. and chimps. and great apes. I've read 2 Jane Goodall books. I like chimps because they are our nearest ancestor, sharing 98% of our genome. Their behaviors and lives are very similar to ours, yet also very different. So its a good comparison, chimp to human, to see maybe where the roots of some of our motives lay. Maybe its the humanzee in me. More on this later.
Here's an awesome video featuring a baboon, sent to me by TaniP
