The chacma baboon, also known as the Cape baboon, is, like all other baboons, from the Old World monkey family. It is one of the largest of all monkeys. Located primarily in southern Africa, the chacma baboon has a wide variety of social behaviours, including a dominance hierarchy, collective foraging, adoption of young by females, and friendship pairings. These behaviors form parts of a complex evolutionary ecology. In general, the species is not threatened, but human population pressure has increased contact between humans and baboons. Hunting, trapping, and accidents kill or remove many baboons from the wild, thereby reducing baboon numbers and disrupting their social structure.
They are highly sociable animals, living in troops, which consist of 20-80 individuals. The troops include males as well as females with their young. Members of a troop are in close ties with each other, sleeping, feeding and grooming together. During the day the groups split into smaller subgroups, consisting of 4-5 females with their young and a dominant male, who leads the group and defends it from other males. They are always on the alert, living in troops for protection and watching for predators. When threatened, the baboons give out loud barks. Then the males run to attack while the females and young hide in a safe place among the trees.
Their Lifespan is around 40 Years and can run at speeds of up to 45K/kh. Their avarage weight is between 12 and 45 kg.

 
A good example where you can observe remotely with drone. How did the drone noise affect them?
I doubt they were even aware of the drone, I keep well away. Dont need to have it in snatching distance.
All in all drones are actually for the good, just like motorcycles - in the right hands of course, but unfortunately there are those who make it sour for everyone, giving it a bad reputation.
Terima kasih

Loved the film but not the music. The worst music chose I've heard in a while. They were not actually dancing to this Viennese Walz.
