Guinea baboon

Guinea baboons are found in grassy, rocky, and steppe habitats in western
Africa.  They live in troops of up to 200 individuals, each with a set place
in a hierarchy.  Group living provides protection from predators such as lions
and hyenas. Baboons are omnivores, eating almost anything available, which
allows them to occupy areas with few resources or harsh conditions.  Their
presence may help improve habitats because they dig for water and spread seeds
in their waste, encouraging plant growth.
