Where other hyrax were sleeping, a single one sat in front of others and kept an eye on ibex all the time, is it the patriarch?

Wow I've never seen the hyrax on the grass like that, they're alway on the rocks when I get to them!

In "Great Rift Valley" Exhibit of Singapore Zoo, the hyrax, ibex and hamadryas baboon are divided, thus I am so surprised to see these three species are living together.
 
There is just so much space that the animals can separate. The hyrax can escape onto there rocky area at any time. I have seen minor agression between species but there are 2 acres so the ibex just run to the other side.
