Japanese macaque, The Japanese macaque (/məˈkɑːk/; Macaca fuscata), also known as the snow monkey, is a terrestrial Old World monkey species that is native to Japan. They get their name "snow monkey" because they live in areas where snow covers the ground for months each year – no other nonhuman primate is more northern-living, nor lives in a colder climate. Individuals have brown-grey fur, red faces, and short tails. Two subspecies are known.
poor Ben was just trying to be nice and share his toblerone with some boys when the monkeys wanted their share! they ganged up on him and this one took the box!
Once upon a time lived Mona Monkey the First. She was given to Ella by my mother LaVona before Ella was born. My mother made this monkey many moons ago, she thinks. MM1 has survived many washings and finally started showing her age while we traveled in MN. She made it one more month back in Norway.
Just occasionally, the monkeys are in a great spot for taking pictures. When it happens, it's hard to stop taking pictures :)
