The Baboon Dilemma: Navigating Coexistence in Cape Town’s Fire-Scarred Landscape

by Isabella Schmidt
March 11, 2025

In the beautiful coastal town of Simon’s Town, wildfires have forced clever baboons to seek food and shelter among people. As these playful primates rummage through gardens and trash bins, locals have mixed feelings—some find them funny, while others are frustrated by the chaos they cause. To help harmony thrive, residents are encouraged to keep their homes secure, avoid feeding the baboons, and support efforts to restore their natural habitat. By making smart choices, both humans and baboons can share this vibrant space together, reminding us all of our bond with nature.
