WATCH | Search continues for baboon on the loose in Northcliff
The search resumes this morning for a baboon spotted in the
Northcliff area of Johannesburg on Wednesday.
This comes after residents in the west of the suburb reported seeing the baboon.
Hassan Kassim from the Community Led Animal Welfare Group (CLAW) says the baboon was last spotted running from Northcliff Corner to an old age home across the shopping centre.
Kassim says the baboon does not pose a threat to anyone.
"What it is trying to do, is to run away from the people because it wants to be on the safe side," says Kassim.
