How has Peter Willis adapted to living with baboons in Simonstown?

Peter Willis has implemented several strategies to manage baboon encounters in Simonstown. He relies on a community alert system that warns him when baboons are in the area, allowing him to take precautionary measures. Willis has installed clear bars on his windows to physically prevent baboons from entering his home. Additionally, he has modified his gardening practices by stopping vegetable cultivation, as he noticed this was attracting the primates to his property. These adaptations represent the compromises residents make to coexist with the baboon population that roosts in nearby mountains and regularly ventures into suburban areas, sometimes reaching as far as the beach.
