The first of three programmes that look at the role of wild animals in Japanese life, art and religion. 1: See No Evil
Messenger of the spirits, protector of the emperor, shield against bad influences - from the earliest times the Japanese monkey has been a potent symbol. Perhaps more than any other creature its image pervades the country's art, religion and culture.
