Primates are among the most represented orders at the Okinawa Zoo and Museum's Nature Land. There are more than a dozen species preserved at the zoo including chimpanzees, monkeys, macaques, capuchins, and mandrills. All appear to be happy and well cared for as well as extremely curious and active. Okinawa Zoo and Museum in Okinawa City is Japan's southernmost zoo.
