Snow Monkeys

These amazing photographs of the Snow Monkeys of Japan were captured by Netherland’s based sharp shooter Ron Gessel. Apparently these monkeys live in Jigokudani (otherwise known as ‘Hell Valley’), in the mountains in Nagano. The cheeky things can be seen here, soaking themselves in a custom-made-for-monkeys hot spring, while the snow falls on their furry little heads.
