Nagano Snow Monkey

Japan is not known for its wildlife, but if you're curious, meet the well-known snow monkeys! Nagano is the main island of Japan's mountainous region and is home to the native Japanese macaque, also known as the snow monkey.

They can survive the cold weather by gathering around in isolated natural hot springs. Make sure to observe proper protocols, when you see them!
