The big baboons go out for a regular walk and forage twice a week with Shaun, our new wildlife cordinator, Cila, Johannes and the volunteers.
Shaun and Cila now chop carrots for the walks which they feed to them once they arrive at their favourite big Camel Thorn tree. Big Mama loves them so much that that if Cila doesn’t feed her quick enough she takes them out of her pockets herself!
Big Mama’s baby “Scrots” is also getting more and more confident with Shaun and Cila. She jumps on their backs and shoulders during feeding time.
Jeffrey, Spock, Nemo and all the gang still test the volunteers courage but with Shaun and Cila to keep them in check the walks can be great fun and very entertaining. Who walks who is still questionable but it remains a wonderful opportunity for everyone.
