<p>Being the last remaining members of a once thriving species of primates, the gelada (pronounced jeh-lah-da) are 200,000 strong and take up residence in the Ethiopian highlands. They are primarily <a class="glossaryLink" aria-describedby="tt" data-cmtooltip="&#60;div class=glossaryItemTitle&#62;herbivorous&#60;/div&#62;&#60;div class=glossaryItemBody&#62;Animals that eat mostly or exclusively grass, shrubs, seeds, and nuts are called herbivores. This category can also be broken down into subgroups too. Critters that fall into this category are: &#38;lt;strong&#38;gt;cows&#38;lt;/strong&#38;gt;, &#38;lt;strong&#38;gt;elk&#38;lt;/strong&#38;gt;, &#38;lt;strong&#38;gt;buffalo&#38;lt;/strong&#38;gt;, &#38;lt;strong&#38;gt;sheep&#38;lt;/strong&#38;gt;, &#38;lt;strong&#38;gt;goats&#38;lt;/strong&#38;gt;, and many &#38;lt;strong&#38;gt;rodents&#38;lt;/strong&#38;gt;, to name a few.&#60;/div&#62;" href="https://critter.science/glossary/herbivorous/" data-gt-translate-attributes='[{"attribute":"data-cmtooltip", "format":"html"}]' tabindex="0" role="link">herbivorous</a> (eat mainly plant matter) grass eaters that live in troops of 1 alpha male with 3 &#x2013; 6 females [&#x2026;]</p>
