Baboons dont always have the best reputation. Across Africa, they are known to raid fields of crops, supermarkets and even peoples homes. But this new series presents a very different side to the mischievous primate. Far away from human settlements, we see baboons in their natural habitat. Our films follow the story of a young male, Wahou, exiled from his clan. When males reached adulthood, they are slowly pushed out from their troop, meaning they need to find a new troop who will accept them. Here in the highlands of South Africa, our young male has a good chance of finding another troop. He follows the river south and eventually comes across a clan. But will they accept him?
