Iwatayama Monkey Park - Park Rules

Park Rules

Don't stare the monkeys in the eye: Many monkeys consider this a sign of aggression and may get scared or return the aggression.

Don't touch the monkeys: As the monkeys are wild animals, they may have parasites or illness you could catch, try to avoid touching them at all and if you do touch them wash your hands thoroughly straight away.

Don't feed them outside: This encourages them to misbehave.

Famous quotes containing the words park and/or rules:

    and the words never said,
    And the ominous, ominous dancing ahead.
    We sat in the car park till twenty to one
    And now I’m engaged to Miss Joan Hunter Dunn.
    Sir John Betjeman (1906–1984)

    This is no argument against teaching manners to the young. On the contrary, it is a fine old tradition that ought to be resurrected from its current mothballs and put to work...In fact, children are much more comfortable when they know the guide rules for handling the social amenities. It’s no more fun for a child to be introduced to a strange adult and have no idea what to say or do than it is for a grownup to go to a formal dinner and have no idea what fork to use.
    Leontine Young (20th century)
