It is a rare and remarkable gesture that alters both their lives. Changing seasons bring new babies to care for, a profusion of insects and blossoms to eat, family disagreements to squabble over and tragedies to overcome.

But with their now confident leader to guide them and their families to shelter and care for them, this troop of snow monkeys is ready to face the world.
