A baboon at the zoo cleverly made gestures to me like a friend, then turned right around, displaying to me his giant red ugly rear end! Aug. 23, 2017 for the Animal Nonsense Poetry Contest

Andrea, the only good thing about seeing a baboon from behind is that it is walking away from you.

Tut tut Petal, shame on you mocking the Kim Kardashian's of the natural world, lol. Though I know what you mean. Take care, Richard

hahaha. I laughed out loud to read what you said here about Kardashian. It's amazing to me that women actually want their butts to appear larger! WAIT. In the natural world, this actually attracts the male when it's the female's time to mate. Ok, now I totally get what you are saying!!
