Article Abstract:

The article reports an unusual practice of hamadryas baboons sleeping in doum palm trees at the Filoha site in lowland Ethiopia instead of the usual safety of cliffs. The reason seems to be that the site offers access to doum palm fruit and provides enough protection from other predators when cliffs are not available.
