This is exactly what Cape Town needs. A committee whose sole purpose is to reconcile relations between the city’s residents and baboons. Capetonians have lived in fear of their sandwiches being stolen for long enough.
The committee’s intention is to grow a sustainable baboon population on the outskirts of urban areas while ensuring the safety of local residents. And they are thinking of everything – including where urban “sleeping sites” should be cleared in which the primates will be allowed to get some shut-eye.
The committee will also drive education for humans around interacting with baboons, to help us avoid confrontations with the animals that can be dangerous and traumatic for all parties.
A good tip is to keep a water gun or hose pipe ready in the garden as it’s been found that baboons hate being sprayed with a strong stream of water. Just like humans, then.
