I've always found the "dog face" of the Olive Baboon to be a little threatening. Its teeth even more so!
This species is commonly called "olive" because of the color of its fur (kinda grey-greenish).
The official name for the Olive Baboon is Papio anubis. Papio is just the genus marker for baboon. Anubis, however, is a Greek rendering of the name of the Egyptian god of the underworld! Check out Anubis. He has a "dog face" too!
The French naturalist Jean-Baptiste Audebert named this primate in 1797.
