Japan 'snow monkey' park to cap visitors after overcrowding, bad behaviour - The Economic Times

Japan's famed "snow monkey" park in Nagano is implementing visitor caps and an online booking system to manage a surge in tourists. The Jigokudani Yaen-Koen, known for wild macaques bathing in hot springs, has seen visitor numbers skyrocket, leading to overcrowding and disruptive behaviour, including attempts to bathe with the animals. This move aims to preserve the park's environment and the monkeys' well-being.
