This baboon hit me and pushed me aside to steal some cookies

 

We were at a table next to a refreshment stand at Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe. One of my companions had a bag of cookies. This guy, I will guess about 65 pound of him, ran full speed into my side pushing me nearly off my seat. In a flash he grabbed the cookies and was gone. The young man working at the stand came out with a broom and told us that this baboon often steals things and we should be warned. Too late for me. The shadow at the lower right is the young man with the broom.
