Sneaky baboon steals pizza from tourists

WHEN a group of excited tourists stopped to check out the sights here, they never expected what happened next.

THE love of pizza knows no species.

A mischievous baboon was caught stealing a box of pizza from a car’s back seat passenger.

John, who took the video, told Storyful that while driving through South Africa, he parked on the side of the road to check out the baboons.

He heard his car door open, but he couldn’t see anyone anywhere.

“It was only when a large male baboon walked in front of the car that we realised it was actually trying to open our car door,” John said

But the baboon quickly moved to the car in front of them, where he hopped into the back seat to steal a box of pizza, as John captured in the video above.
