From Russia, with love

Today Tatiana and I compared baboon stories- mine from Zimbabwe and hers from Ethiopia.  It turns out, no matter the geographic location, baboons are both ugly and frightening.  They have teeth like a lion but a king of turkey-themed butt.  They sit around trees like old men but will kill baby impalas with glee.  Anyways, Tatiana got so mad one day that she whipped a baboon with a towel.  It responded by baring its teeth and hissing, before wandering off and giving her the stink eye.  She said it watched her, leering and mean-eyed, for the rest of the trip.  Her conclusion?  "Sometimes, I get a little mad."
