Mandrill, e.g. (6)

I believe the answer is:

baboon

(Other definitions for baboon that I've seen before include "Large primate" , "Large long-nosed Arabian or African monkey" , "A large one of 17 across" , "wild swinger?" , "Uncouth type" .)

I've seen this clue in the Wall Street Journal, the King Feature Syndicate and The Sun.
