On all fours, the Japanese Macaque keeps a close eye on what's going on. Nothing escapes the black beady eyes in its reddish face. The thick fur keeps this little monkey safe and warm even in cold weather. Sometimes it even has to endure icy winds and snow. Then it prefers to snuggle up to a friend and keep warm. A cozy jacket pocket will be just perfect!

The Japanese Macaque looks so friendly. It almost looks as if it is smiling, tilting its bushy head with the small reddish face: "Do you have a treat for me?" Who could resist! Like all monkeys, this macaque loves fresh fruit. If it's sweet, like bananas, it loves it all the more. The Japanese Macaque is curious and sociable and likes to make friends. Once it has got to know you, it's sure to let you cuddle its thick furry back.
