July 28, 2009: Baboons learn to open car roof containers



This is one of those shots that isn't exactly what you think it is at first...

The folks at the Knowsley Safari Park sent this car through on purpose, with the car roof box filled. They did it to show that the baboons have, in fact, learned how to open the containers.

Of course, this means there were similar events, before the park figured out that it was happening, and how to get a good picture of it.

I'm just as concerned about the damage to the vehicle itself. Side mirror... wipers... the baboons are now the subject of "Anti Social Baboon Orders" from the park. They don't say what that means. It sounds like these baboons have now been put on report, or double secret probation or something.
