Tutorial: How to Make A Baboon Lead You To Water

John P.

May 3, 2010 By John P.

I pulled this one straight out of the extremely interesting but completely useless information repository.

Here we have an African man in the Kalahari desert who is hunting, or on vacation, or whatever! It’s not important! What IS important is that he spotted some baboons and he definitely knows how to get them to give up their secret watering hole! (Plus, monkeys are so cute aren’t they? I know someone is going to tell me, “It’s not a monkey! It’s a baboon! Totally different animal!” …shut your trap!)

Now, at first I was hoping there was going to be some interrogation or Chinese water torture, or something! But I guess he was all out of electricity, truth serum, and Nazis. Still… the giant ant hill was a nice touch.

I just wonder how long it took for someone to figure out the psychology of this process and then perfect it. Fascinating.

      Well I guess when you’re living out there among the monkeys, without the Internet, free time’s not really an issue.

    That is fascinating! Very cool, indeed! But that voice! That voice! That’s the narrator of all those movies they made us watch in elementary school! LOL!!!

    Now I know why having a jogging routine is so important. You never know when you’ll have to keep up with a baboon on the way to the watering hole.
