Baboon steals cameraman's food at golf tournament - video

A baboon was caught on camera stealing a cameraman's food earlier this week.

The animal was being filmed from afar by the cameraman during the Nedbank Challenge at the Gary Player Country Club in Sun City, South Africa.

However, the baboon quickly ran over to where the film crew were stationed on the golf course, before picking up the man's lunch and helping himself to it.



The primate then proceeded to sit on their golf cart, and also attempted to see if there were any more items of food in the cameraman's backpack, much to the amusement of the commentators.

A baboon was recently filmed adopting a stray cat in a zoo after it wandered into its enclosure.
