The baboons live in groups of 10 to 200 individuals, led by a large and strong male that fights when attacked, the baboon is dangerous, even for larger animals.
The mandrill feeds on insects, herbal fruits, leaves and eggs, sometimes stores food on their large, hanging cheeks, when they grow a little, the young travel on the mother's back, but newborns are hung from the fur of her .
The way to show friendship is by showing his teeth, raising his upper lip and making sounds, however when the mandrill begins to hit the ground and brings out its fangs, this is a sign of disgust.
The baboons walk through the meadows during the day and sleep at night.
