Comment reconnaître : Chacma baboon
The chacma baboon has shaggy dark grey to brown-grey fur. Its long dog-like skull gives it a distinctive appearance. Hands, face and rump are dark and hairless, which clearly sets it apart from other monkey species.
Male chacma baboons grow significantly larger than females and have a powerful, almost stocky build. Strikingly, the males’ canine teeth are greatly elongated. The tail is long and curved upwards for two thirds of its length, with the remaining third hanging loosely.
