This episode delivers a wild and humorous dive into why the baboon is the African bushveld's ultimate communist. We'll explore their chaotic social structures and how their "Great Leap Forward" foraging habits devastate bird populations and crucial plant life, alongside causing millions in damage to industries like timber and agriculture. We'll also expose their cunning "victim" PR campaigns—including those well-meaning "save the baboon" initiatives—even as their bold incursions into human areas lead to property damage and dangerous attacks. Natural predators simply can't control their soaring numbers, making human intervention a critical part of restoring balance.
