Japanology Plus - Season 6 Episode 23 Episodio 23
Japanese macaques, a species of monkey unique to Japan, are a common sight in the country's forests and mountains. Much-loved for their expressive faces, these monkeys are sometimes seen as deities. This time on Japanology Plus, our main guest is Hiroyuki Kurita, an Oita City official whose duties include monkey management. He tells us why it's important to maintain a distance between the human and wild animal kingdoms. And in Plus One, Matt Alt learns how a monkey-shaped charm protects homes and neighborhoods.
