A group of baboons is commonly referred to as a ‘troop.’
Baboons are social animals that live in large groups, which helps them protect each other from predators and fosters social bonds. Each troop can vary in size, typically ranging from a few dozen to over a hundred individuals. These troops are characterized by a strict social hierarchy and complex social interactions among the members, which include grooming, playing, and forming alliances. Understanding the structure and dynamics of a baboon troop gives insights into their behavior and social development.
