- The islands of Japan are home to a vast array of amazing wildlife. Japanese macaques, or snow monkeys, are perfectly adapted to living in Hell Valley, making full use of the hot springs to warm up in freezing temperatures.

5:56 I've never seen an animal have so much love in it's eyes!
In the 1970s, a large group of Japanese macaques were brought to South Texas and released in the wild because they were considered a major nuisance in their own native country. Consequently, many of them died in their new harsh and hostile environment, but surprisingly, others were able to adapt and survive. They quickly multiplied in their new and strange world. Afterwards, hunters were allowed to come and cull them during hunting season to control their ever growing population. Eventually, only a few snow monkeys were left. The remaining few were subsequently saved, though. They ended up in a special sanctuary for primates which ironically is also located right here, in South Texas. *"Snow Monkeys in Texas"* 🐵
There's also emus in Texas!
Why would they release them in Texas of all places?? Would be less effort to just kill them and have pretty much the same effect, minus the animal’s suffering. Human stupidity amazes me sometimes
Interesting information. Thank you for sharing with us.

Macaque: Oh look a flea!
...then eats it
So?
I'd imagine it's most likely to cold for fleas lice mites, especially given they are in the healing waters most of their days. But, getting abscesses would be a definite problem from infants ripping out hairs over pacifiing on the nipples and abscesses from combatives.
日本ザルですね😄
Not "jaigokudani",it is "jigokudani"!
straight vibin w/ the homies
Do Japanese Macaques operate in a Troupe structure like Rhesus Macaques? Where most troupes are an Alpha Male and then Females of varying ranks, along with their babies and yearlings, and then when they're old enough the males are ousted and usually end up in Bachelor Troupes?
MUH CAQUE
5:56 More affectionate than most humans.
Wow
Aren't there tardigrades in the onsens as well which contribute to the fabled healing powers in some way? Also I love how fluffy these monkeys are. 🥰
Nice
Oh my!!!
i wonder if the monkeys pee in the hotsprings
Considering his size I think it's likely the subordinate was one of the alpha's elder sons. Once the teenage boys get to a certain age they lose a lot of privileges which helps encourage them to be independent and leave the troop.

4:49 awesome
Wow
Nice
very nice to look all the pitcher here
Japanese macaques aren't the only "snow monkeys" that survive in freezing climes. There's also the Chinese golden snub-nosed monkey.
Does this mention that the pools are a tourist attraction, that there is food in the pool, that the monkeys are surrounded by humans who can get to them easily by public transport, and that there are plenty of onsen for humans in this "wild" valley?
No.
AcKChyUALly 🤓
Omg
They’re so beautiful!!!
How does their fur not freeze when they get out?
Probably their fur is thicc
Yeah, not onlyh that, but I know that when I get out of the shower, and don't dry myself I am freezing! Can't imagine how cold they get drenched in freezing weather.
I believe they shake off the water like dogs do.
it's A Monkey
Very cool for them

heaven

Just saw this on TV. One of the coolest videos I've seen in a while. They look so peaceful and their eyes are so exapressive, so human-like.
👍🇯🇵👌🏻
Super
The overdramatic audio with the edited-in squealing during the fight is annoying.
