Commonly known as "Snow Monkeys,"Japanese macaque monkeys love nothing more than bathing in soothing hot springs. In Japan's Jigokudani Monkey Park outside of the city of Nagano, tourists can watch these highly intelligent primates soak, relax, groom each other, and live the good life at their monkeys-only spa. The macaques pretty much ignore the shivering tourists bundled up in coats and scarves giggling and photographing them. Don't get me wrong - I would definitely visit, but it does make you wonder who is the more advanced species here.
A tourism website for the park says, "Around 160 monkeys are living here in the moment. You can see them every day." Clearly, they meant to say "at" the moment, but the typo is apt. Snow monkeys have their priorities straight: spending time with their group of family and friends, hanging out in the hot tub, and making sure their hair (fur) always looks fantastic.
