I really hate baboons. It's not just that they happen to be one of the ugliest monkeys in existence, they're evil. You can see it in their eyes. Did you know that if you live in Africa you have to worry about Baboons coming into your shack and eating your baby? Yes, it's true. According to one news articel I looked up as proof, "A young mother this week watched helplessly as a baboon snatched and ripped open the skull of her only child and ate his brain."
I decided to do a little research on baboons to see what the experts say. According to National Geographic, Baboons are opportunistic eaters and, fond of crops, become destructive pests to many African farmers. They eat fruits, grasses, seeds, bark, and roots, but also have a taste for meat(a.k.a. babies). They eat birds, rodents, and even the young of larger mammals, such as antelopes and sheep (and don't forget humans)
I mean really! Is there anyone in the whole world who likes baboons? I have no problem with people who like lions, and tigers, and bears (oh my!) who would gladly eat our young because that's what they're supposed to do! AND I've never heard of any of those animals sneaking into someones house and eating theirs baby's brains. That's just sick, even for an animal.

HOW LONG MUST I WAIT FOR ANOTHER POST!?!?!?!?!? :-)
...You're right though. Baboons are a little bit creepy.
--and I don't like their butts.
Everything you said is true. I've been to africa and they scare the hell out of everyone there.
A note: That photo you have is not in fact a baboon. It's a Mandrill. Different animal, actually scarier than baboons.
