“Wildlife” reveals the secret of the appearance of baboons in Riyadh • Al Marsad Newspaper

Al-Marsad Newspaper: The National Center for Wildlife Development revealed the secret of the emergence of baboons in some locations in Riyadh.

The center indicated that the emergence of baboons is due to the acquisition of young monkeys of this type, and then disposal of them when they grow up.

And he explained that releasing baboons outside the urban range leads to the formation of hotspots in areas that are not within its geographical extension.

It is worth noting that the National Center for Wildlife Development reported that 40,000 baboons have been monitored in the Kingdom, and a plan has been implemented to remove them from residential areas.
