00I've never heard this expression. Can you provide a context?02br
02br
00I'd gues it can be used either as a graphic way to say 'red' (I was so embarrassed, my face was as red as ...') or even to insult someone (You're a mandrill's ***), just like we say 'You're a horse's ***'.02br

0 I've heard baboon's *** but not a mandrill's but it's the same reason. Their bums are extremely red and it is insulting to be compared to a monkey's bottom. 0-

0 Have look at a mandrill. They have an intensively coloured *** (using your word).02br

00Maybe it is not an insult, but a fairly colourful expression to describe the state of your buttocks if they are hurt after prolonged cycling or something like that? Just a guess.02br

Hi,

Not sure, but I was quoted once as having said, "What difference does the color of a baboon's *** make?"  I forgot having said it, so I'm at a loss as to the context.  I think that's what I'm going to call me second book, however.
