Japanese Macaque (Macaca fuscata)

Series of dimensioned drawings of the Japanese Macaque in front and side views

The Japanese Macaque, or snow monkey (Macaca fuscata) is a primate native to Japan. They are set apart by their pink posteriors and thick, gray or brown fur, which keeps them warm through the winter. They are omnivores, eating everything from fungi to crayfish, and have cheek pouches that extend down their necks to store food. They live in the forests of Honshi, Shikoku, and Kyushu islands, and a few smaller islands. They earned their nickname, ‘snow monkey’ because they thrive in the snow. They make snowballs for fun and bathe in hot springs heated by volcanos to keep warm during the harsh winters.
