These young monkeys look a little sad as they sit close together in the water and one sticks out his tongue to catch the falling snowflakes. The wild Japanese macaques sit in the hot water, which is around 40 degrees, as a way to keep warm in the minus five degree Celsius weather in igokundani Monkey Park in Yamanouchi, Nagano Prefecture, Japan. During the winter, the macaques spend their days warming in the hot springs before returning to the surrounding forest at night. (Photo by Julia Wimmerlin/Solent News)
