BABOON PUT TO USEFUL TASK
As Shepherds, the Animals Are Said
tc Develop Traits That Are
Almost Human.
I have often wondered, remarks Mr.
W. C. Scully in the Atlantic Monthly,
why more baboons are not trained as
shepherds. The creatures invariably
develop nn absorbing affection for any
young animals, human or other, that
are placed in their charge, and there
Is a well-authenticated Instance of a
liaboon taking charge of a motherless
Kafir Infant, and guarding It night
and day for more than two years.
r I he simian foster , a rent performed
every necessary function except feed
ing The child.
Several baboons have .been trained
as shepherds. In a case that Mr. Scul
ly himself observed the baboon had
charge of several hundred sheep. He
became passionately attached to the
members of the flock, anti remained
with, them all day long at pasture and
brought them hack to the corral In
the evening. Ills only fault as shep
herd wns Ihe outcome of extreme so
licitude; if he heard the voices of wild
baboons In the distance at any time
of the day, he would at once collect
the sheep, and with every appearance
of the liveliest terror hurry them
home.
