Wild Japan 1 - Snow Monkeys and Vulcanos

Japan - an island kingdom full of opposite. Snow monkeys bathing in hot pools in the north, mega cities such as Tokyo on the one side and remote valleys with strange traditions on the other. Seldom are the differences in a country so great as in Japan, which stretches over 3,000 kilometres from north to south. Breathtaking landscapes and rare animals such as e.g. strange giant salamanders, majestic manchurian cranes and shy fish owls are presented in HD quality.
