The Geladas of Ethiopia

10,000 Birds

In parts of the Simien Mountains of northern Ethiopia, from which I have just returned, Geladas have been protected from persecution for some time. Competition with domestic livestock has restricted some Gelada bands to poorer foraging on steep slopes. A harem male grooms one of his females. Photo by Adam Riley. Photo by Adam Riley.
