In this study, we took advantage of the largest camera trap‐based monitoring project in Africa, Snapshot Safari and analyzed 10,000 camera trap detections from three sites in South Africa and one site in Tanzania to test whether baboons exhibit species‐specific reactive avoidance in response to the presence of predators. ABSTRACT Predators exert strong
