Snow Monkey

I am a fluffy, curious, intelligent bundle of energy known as a Snow Monkey, also known as a Japanese Macaque, and I am native to Japan. I live further north than any other primate except humans.

In the winter, it becomes cold. My fur grows denser to prepare for the winter, but you can still find my family members and me hugging close to share body heat. Do you see that over there? That is a hot spring. During the day, you will find my family and me soaking in those warm waters. It sure feels good to ease the aches, with the added benefit of keeping us warm.

I am an excellent swimmer. Would you care to join me? We can have some food after our swim. I am not a fussy eater; I am an omnivore so whatever you like to eat is fine. Then after we eat, we can roll snowballs. Oh yes, we love to play with snowballs or rocks. See my siblings over there; they are bashing rocks together; I think they like the sound it makes.

Your pet becomes an expert at finding its own food!

Trees are the whole world for arboreal pets. Their homes. Their social venues. Their food stores. And their playgrounds. This also makes trees the logical venue for pet games and competitions!

Tree climbing is one of the oldest traditional pet games, because it is used by arboreal parents to teach their offspring basic survival and foraging skills. While most arboreal pets were happy just going about their business of homemaking, romancing, foraging and eating, the monkeys became bored, and decided to make a game out of the business of living, competing with one another and their arboreal friends to climb ever faster and higher!
