Japanese Snow Monkeys Ptw Edutainment

In Nagano 300km north of Tokyo, up a winding snow covered track 30 minutes from the road you will find the world famous Nihon Zaru "Japanese Snow-Monkeys" chilling out, stumbling around, searching for food, "piggybacking" each other and bathing in the hot springs to stay warm in an environment where temperatures fall below -15°c and snow covers the ground for one third of the year. They are extremely calm, gentle natured monkeys who go about doing their own thing, unfazed by the crowds of people who come to visit them from around the world everyday.
