They Killed Fred
They sure did. His habit of doughnuts and food with plenty of sugar did not help the situation. He was the bad boy of Cape Town but it was his demeanor that did him in in the end.
City of Cape Town veterinarian Elzette Jordan said baboons had developed illnesses by eating human food. Many in the Cape Peninsula were overweight, though Fred was not.
She said Fred became dangerous. When he heard motorists unlock their vehicles with a remote control, he would open the door and dash inside before the owner reached the car. "He has bitten quite a few people. He scratched many.
Too bad - I bet he was a nice guy when he wasn't under the influence.
