I worked at Jigokudani monkey park for 3 months researching their behaviour, and studied macaques in Japan for a year. I made some friends with guides at the park and others, and apparently monkeys had been spotted in completely different areas of Nagano bathing in peoples private hot springs, super far from the park. No one had them tagged so they weren't sure whether they were monkeys from the park or just random monkeys that had discovered the behaviour on their own, but nonetheless interesting. Japanese macaques do have a lot of interesting cultural behaviours; bathing, food washing, stone handling. Also, if you get the chance to go study in Japan for whatever reason, don't hesitate, it's amazing

honestly this now my favorite video from your channel. it wasn't even about japan that made it good to me. I used to live in Utah for most of my life and there's alaways good amount of snow for almost half a year at times. so seeing this videos with all the snow and mountians made it very home like to me. In short im very home sick.

Chris, my former Tokyo International University colleagues and I have a story about that terrifying train station. We all took a hike up Tanigawa and almost died. We should have known this would be the result when our trip started at that Station from Hell which was even creepier in 2018 when we were there. There were no kawaii items in the station, just dread. And oh btw there's a monument to all those who have died on Tanigawa not far from that train station. 😰
