These incredible human-like creatures are just fascinating to watch and even
better when you get to walk amongst them and see them up close!
The
Baboon Matters Trust is a non-profit organisation which consists of a team of
dedicated individuals who are passionate about baboon conservation in South
Africa. The Trust aims to raise awareness about the plight of the baboons as
well as educating and training the public so that sustainable solutions can be
found for areas of conflict between baboons and humans.
Whilst visiting
Baboon Matters, you will get to experience a two to three hour guided hike where
you'll get to view the four troops very closely. This allows you to see the
gentler side of baboons and the amazing way in which they live.
Baboon
monitors have been employed to keep baboons out of the nearby villages, which
helps keep them and the village residents safe. These monitors go through an
extensive training program.
This is definitely a worthwhile project to
support and a lovely outing for the entire family. Your money will go towards
the conservation of the baboons.
