Questions About This Episode

What is Episode 7 - Spying on Baboons? about?

In the final episode of season 1 of Eco Tones, Pat reunites with guest co-host Mike (Episode 5, Why Do Zebras Have Stripes?) to talk about social networks and behavioral studies of Anubis baboons in Laikipia, Kenya. With the help of Jessica Gunson, Molly McEntee, and Leah Worthington from the Uaso Ngiro Baboon Project, we learn about the day-to-day life of a baboon researcher, and the steps that they take to better understand the social dynamics of a baboon troop! Why is that baboon scratching the other baboon? Weren't those two with different partners yesterday? Jeez, how much polyamory happens in a troop? And why are we WATCHING it? Neither Mike nor Pat are especially skilled in any way to actually understand this topic, but we do our best to fall upwards. Episode 7 concludes our first season of Eco Tones, but we'll be back in the fall with more episodes, new talent, and and interesting discussions! In the meantime, check out the lab's ongoing work at and and check out our previous episodes on iTunes and Soundcloud. Thanks to everyone who tuned in, and check us out when we return in the fall!
