mandrill

noun

Etymology: From man + drill (“Mandrillus leucophaeus”). Displaced earlier English man-tiger. First attested in 1744.

1. A primate, Mandrillus sphinx, with a colorful face and rump.

   “For the Mandrills live in society, and their bands are so powerful in point of numbers, and so crafty in point of management, that they are about as formidable neighbours as could be imagined.”

   “In both mandrills and drills, males have long muzzles with pronounced maxillary ridges and long tooth rows. Like baboons, mandrills and drills have forelimbs and hindlimbs of nearly equal length.”
