Plus, it was a cool drink. Where are your priorities, man? One thing to factor in is that wild animals survive to adulthood by fighting other wild animals--and winning. Most men--even the meanest bouncer in the roughest biker bar--probably haven't much experience fighting baboons.

Signalman Jack: The Baboon Who Worked for the Railroad—and Never Made a Mistake

One question, though, for anyone with wilderness experience: I have always heard that wild animals are instinctively afraid of fire. Would lighting a torch, or maybe even flashing a cigarette lighter, scare away a predatory animal?

“Berenice” (1835)

No external tools including fire are allowed in this fight. It's mano a monko. It looks to me like Zerc has anawered your question, astro. Unless someone else can show where a human has walked up to a baboon, showed his teeth, and taken his bottle of cooldrink. Be glad he didn't show any interest in the gf. You can be forgiven for giving up the drink. No way: Cecil answered this question www.

As I understand it, Baboons are bigger than Chimps. Maybe you could get the baboon to pig out on steak before the fight and he'd be all "No mas, no mas no more box. If you google "Baboon attack" you'll get all sorts of stories. The Human It's the reverse. Chimps are considerably bigger than baboons on average. A male alpha chimpanzee is usually - lbs. Male alpha baboons usually top out at around lbs. Adult chimps which people rarely see are a lot bigger than you think.

TV chimps are usually juveniles. It was a joke, Valgard, a role reversal kinda thing. Get it? I thought the mental picture was kinda funny.

You know, a man baring his teeth at a baboon and ms baboon and then stealing his cooldrink. She probably wanted a sip.

I stand corrected. I thought the ones we see are adults. However, when you consider the muscular structure of a baboon Vs. That's an interesting answer by Cecil but it didn't say if the man also was able to use the leverage. But anyways, if I put both of my legs on the foot rests, rose my body up to the top of the chair, reached down to the arm rests and pulled down as I forced all my weight down I could lift the entire stack over lbs of weights on this machine. Which I couldn't get remotely close to doing with the muscles of my legs alone which is how the machine was supposed to be used.

Anyways I don't doubt chimps are vastly stronger than humans in fact I know they are but that experiment is basically useless.

I have to admit that I think people are giving humans short shrift here. Human's legs are far stronger than a baboons, and a roundhouse kick by a man to the head or body of a baboon half the weight of the man is IMO quite likely to stun or injure it severely. In addition humans have far greater endurance over time than a baboon or chimp for that matter. If a man is agile enough to keep out of reach he could easily wear down a baboon by keeping out of reach until it tires then kicking and stomping it to death.

A baboon may be capable of short bursts of speed for limited distances, but is is nowhere near as fast on the open plain as a fit human runner. If man is smart and used the main strength of his endurance, killing a baboon should be quite possible. Err, I hate to join this without knowing the stuff I was asking about, but I think the human losing is pretty accurate. OK to address the deadly human kicking first If you want to see the average human's instinctive kicking abilities watch a group of people who are on a field playing soccer for the first time - you'll laugh your ass off.

If humans were really any good at kicking things to death with no practice there'd be a lot fewer dog injuries and a lot more dead or maimed snappy dogs. I've never heard of a person being able to do much more than distract a medium sized dog with kicks. I doubt they'd be able to do any worse to a lb monkey. I don't think cardio combined with out-manuevering would be much of a bet either; your baboon will be at least as agile and quick as a big dog spending so much time on all fours. You won't be able to slowly jog circles around a loping monkey who'll take long slow dives at you like a showjumping horse.

They'll most likely charge in real fast closing the distance, hold up just out of range and check you out for a few seconds, then leap at your face grabbing onto anything they can get their hands on. I'd say it would be a matter of under 30 seconds before you had to deal with a screaming lb baboon clawing your eyes, biting your neck, and holding on with 3 other appendages.

Again, think of a baboon as a german shepard with the habits and agility of a monkey. I know I'm not gonna outrun or dodge a police dog chasing me down. Lastly any wild baboon that old will have spent the past 18 years defending it's self unarmed in real life and death struggles with very nasty cats and other baboons.

It won't panic, it will know how to handle it's self. Most humans simply never get that kind of experience. And any that do will look for a weapon first so what percentage would really have a clue what to do with empty hands standing buck naked in a field when a huge set of teeth attached to an animal they've certainly never fought before are lunging for their faces? As I asked earlier, if the question is "is it possible? Just about anything CAN happen. A 6 year-old girl could kill an adult elephant given the right circumstances and coincidental chain of events.

If the question is "Is it likely? Most humans would lose that fight pretty fast. If a man bites a baboon does he wind up with a mouthful of rhesus pieces? Good one. What I want to know is, is Zerc's "cooldrink" a colloquialism or a typo. I've repeated it here a couple times, but nobody's commented. Whadduo, Zerc? Might want to consider that before you go trying to roundhouse kick one. Really, though, part of delivering an effective roundhouse is feinting, confusing your opponent. Might not work on a baboon who doesn't know the rules.

You'd be in a pretty delicate position half way through a kick with a three foot tall critter under your knee. I'll try. I'll try anything once. I'm I guess cooldrink is a colloquialism. It's what we tend to call a drink that is cool as in cold not 'kewl' here in South Africa. It can range from carbonated drinks such as Coca-Cola, Sprite or Pepsi to fruit juices. It doesn't refer to an alchoholic drink though.

Thanks, Zerc I really do learn something every day. Cool story about the baboon. I'm sure it's funny to you now. Too bad you didn't get it on video. The more interesting question, I think, is whether a world-class martial artist could win this fight.
