Episode notes
Peaceful Baboons

- The baboons were surprisingly peaceful, possibly due to the concealing nature of the forest environment.
Hippie Baboons
- Jackie's research focused on the aggression of dominant male baboons.
- The baboons' peaceful behavior contrasted with their typical aggression in more open savannah environments.
