Julianne, Japanese Snow Macaque
Primates

Julianne came to Black Pine Animal Sanctuary (BPAS) from a facility that needed to rehome her and her mother, Marilyn. Formerly breeding females, they were removed from the breeding program due to their age and dominant behaviors.
Before they arrived at BPAS, their holding area was strictly inside, with only a small window. The prior facility did not think it provided them with a quality of life, so they chose BPAS as their forever home.
Marilyn and Julianne were quarantined and given full medical exams at their previous facility. Upon arrival, they were able to be introduced to the Primate House immediately. They were provided time to acclimate to their new surroundings and then introduced to resident Tucker.
Tucker and the ladies only took a few days to adjust to the new living arrangements. Tucker, a former “pet,” quickly learned normal primate behaviors, and the girls accepted him as part of their troop. Unfortunately, we said goodbye to Marilyn in September, 2025 due to cardiac disease. She was almost 30 years old. Julianne remains with her friend Tucker here at Black Pine, where she will live the REST of her life.
