PAPIINAE

Papiinae is the baboon family of animals. They are distinguished by a rounded head, with a moderately or strongly projecting muzzle, the eyes close together. The tail is absent and the breast, ears and buttocks are naked. They are sociable animals congregating in troops or packs and are omnivorous, the larger part of the diet being vegetarian, but occasionally local troops are found which are carnivorous.
