Very.
Those Japanese Macaques are called provision monkeys because scientists would throw out food for them to attact them to Jigokudani in order to study them....these monkeys would come down from the mountains during winter time (where food was sparse as nothing grows on the snow covered trees) and as a consequence of the food provided to them they learned to immerse themselves in the natural hot springs which is a first of its kind for primate behavior anywhere in the world. In fact they passed down this learned behavior to successive generations and they remain the only monkeys to immerse themselves jacuzzi style in order to stay comfortably warm during the harsh cold spells of the winter months.

Macaques ain't whack!
