noun
gelada; gelada baboon
Refers to the species Theropithecus gelada, a primate found in the Ethiopian highlands. Used in zoological contexts.
ゲラダヒヒはエチオピアの高地に生息している。
Gelada baboons inhabit the highlands of Ethiopia.
動物園でゲラダヒヒの群れを見た。
I saw a troop of gelada baboons at the zoo.
ヒヒ is the general term for 'baboon' (Papio genus), while ゲラダヒヒ specifically refers to the gelada (Theropithecus gelada), which is not a true baboon but a close relative.
From English 'gelada' (itself from Amharic ጭላዳ č̣əlada) + 狒狒 (ひひ, 'baboon'). The katakana spelling reflects its status as a loanword-based animal name.
