Using paintball guns on baboons has been suggested as one way of keeping them out of urban areas, The Cape Argus reported on Tuesday.

This was part of a baboon management protocol drafted in Cape Town. City officials, CapeNature and SA National Parks had all agreed baboons had to be entirely excluded from urban areas.

Can't see this working well. Every idiot with a PB gun is going to start shooting at baboons now. They'll probably become more aggressive too.

Typical Cape Town, they even want the baboons to be coloured.

I see it as an excuse for teenagers to paint the residents house walls....

But then they also have to have their teeth removed.

I can see it working for that reason.
