Sarsha Rinkovec, I am the Champion! (ANIMALS 2024)

Baboons are such wonderful and fascinating creatures to watch in the wild. During one of our quieter animal watching days in Kruger National Park South Africa, we came across a troop of baboons. There were a lot of mothers carrying infant baboons on their backs or under their tummies. This particular little one thought he was the champion of a race as he kept waving his right fist up in the air, just like a small child would if winning a prize.
