| Believe it or not, Snow Monkeys are native
to Japan and are quite common where we live! We
have seen them many times in the mountains around
Yonezawa. The monkeys we have seen are very
shy but others which live around cities and are
used to people can be pretty aggressive! The
snow monkeys travel in packs or families with old
and young alike. The younger ones run and
play just like human kids. Most of the monkey's
fur is light brownish but the true "snow"
monkeys have white fur and are pretty rare. |
