Our work with baboons in South Africa

As wild habitats diminish and human activities increasingly overtake previously wild areas of our country, baboons around South Africa are coming into increasing contact with humans, often with detrimental outcomes for the animals. The Baboon Matters Trust works to conserve and defend the rights of baboons, both on the Peninsula and across the country.
