Japanese Macaque


[Information from Yamaha-Motor]

The Snow Monkey of Shimokita Peninsula inhabits the northernmost region of Japan's main island, which is the world's coldest spot inhabited by primates (excluding humans). The species has a short tail despite the fact that it belongs to the “old-world” monkey family, which is characterized by a long tail. The Snow Monkey of Shimokita Peninsula is currently classified in the Red Data Book as a “Threatened Local Population” species. Assembly instructions for paper sculptures of the Snow Monkey of Shimokita Peninsula, as well as photo images of completed sculptures may be downloaded from this web site.
