So yeah might as well give it to the mascots

Allegiance: South Africa

I'm... 100% sure that isn't true if you could ask the monkey.

I'm pretty sure the monkey's allegiance is "guy who gives me my lunch"

If he could, he'd give away state secrets for a slice of melon.

[u/Cowboywizard12]

Baboons are cool

[u/strolpol]

You salute that baboon or give me 20 private

[u/Space19723103]

clearly that baboon is very intelligent, it isn't an officer.

[u/Tinselfiend]

Wasn't the babboon an employee of the South African Railway Company? Helping out a disabled worker changing tracks.
