JUST IN CASE YOU FELT LIKE SLEEPING TONIGHT -- HEAVY NIGHTMARE FUEL FROM NAMIBIA.
PIC(S) INFO: Spotlight on an olive baboon (genus: Papio anubis) eating the scavenged remains of a young impala, Namibia, Africa. Credits: @chabaporini. 📸: @roymangersnes.
OVERVIEW: "Baboons have an omnivorous diet but are, for the most part, herbivorous. They do, however, eat insects, and will on occasion eat shellfish, trout, salmon and birds, in addition to small antelope and vervet monkeys.
They are even known to steal goats and sheep from human homesteads.
Baboons also occasionally hunt and capture rabbits, baby gazelles or small monkeys
Baboons hunt in small groups to tackle small prey, like lizards or hares, although they are just as often solitary hunters that roam about over a large territory in search of food."
