That’s good. We should get some of those Hokkaido snow monkeys and drop them off in Idaho though. Is this ecologically a good idea? Absolutely not. But it would make the place more interesting
No, Mexico has jungle at the bottom, and some would describe everything north of the Darien gap as North America. It’s just not uncommon to treat Central America as something different
Yeah it’s totally a common thing to not know. Especially us USians tend to think of Mexico as the northern deserts and central plateaus because that’s what’s close to us and where their capital is.
I’ve always wished we had monkeys in North America above the jungle
There’s a shit load of rhesus macaques in Florida.

Isn’t North America entirely “above the jungle”?
