Photo by @jtkerby | Words by @craigwelch | Geladas bare their massive canines not when they're eating, but when they are fighting or threatening one another, which happens often. Among males, it seems there's always something to quarrel about. These grass-eaters live in small reproductive groups of mostly females, with one leader male. Sometimes, a bachelor will challenge the leader and a vicious squabble will ensue, with one or more monkeys ripping after the leader. In my few weeks in Guassa, in the highlands of Ethiopia, I witnessed several of these confrontations. These conflicts may start suddenly, or bubble beneath the surface over time and then abruptly break out into the open. But once the battle is on, nothing about it happens quietly. There are squawks and screeches, many with precise meanings. Sometimes the fight is over before any animal even touches another. But sometimes, these battles can last days and only end with one monkey severely wounded or dead. | Shot on assignment for #NatGeo along with fellow photographer @tbfrost.
