Description
Wild Japanese macaques, commonly known as snow monkeys, have become famously notable for their winter visits to the Jigokudani hot springs in a mountain town near Nagano, Japan. While the snow falls, they will often sit in the hot spring pools (known as onsens in Japanese) for hours, sleeping or grooming each other. Their often human-like expressions and behaviors make it fascinating to simply watch them for hours.
