Artist Bio:
Abbie, one of our Hamadryas baboon females, was born on December 22, 2006. She enjoys learning new behaviors with her trainers, playing with the puzzle feeders their keepers give them and lounging around during the day. Abbie is a skilled artist and always creates thoughtful and unique pieces with the help of her keepers. Hamadryas baboons were revered by the Ancient Egyptians as representatives of the Egyptian god of learning. They are intelligent individuals who display complex social behaviors.
