A BOBBEJAAN believed to have hopped on a ship from Cape Town is causing havoc in Durban.

- BY ALYSSIA BIRJALAL

Residents in Durban's Umbilo and Glenwood areas are being asked asked to keep an eye out for the baboon that has mysteriously appeared in the region.

Carol Booth, coordinator, rescuer and caregiver at the Monkey Helpline, explained: “It’s just a little juvenile, so it’s no threat to anybody. It will not hurt anyone.”

She added: “There are people who believe in witchcraft, so they might think the baboon has been sent by witches, which is not true.”

The first sighting of the apie was reportedly on a ship.

Booth explained: “We are not 100 percent sure if it came off the ship.
