Question: Do you think baboons can adapt to me more intelligent than humans?

I guess it depends on how you judge intelligence! There are some tasks that other animals, including baboons, are better at than humans. I don’t think they will ever become more intelligent and create a planet of the apes style takeover 😉 intelligence is something that evolves so gradually that it would take a really long time to see a big change, even if a genius baboon was born tomorrow 🙂
