"Golden Snub Nosed Monkey Man" is the 9th episode of Season 4 of the PBS Kids show Wild Kratts. It is the 101st episode of the series overall. It premiered on July 21, 2016.
Synopsis[]
The Wild Kratts travel to China looking for snub-nosed monkeys: primates capable of surviving in snowy mountains. However, the team soon must search for Martin, who not only gets lost in the mountains along with a baby snub-nosed monkey, but is transformed into a Yeti-like creature when his Snub-nosed Monkey Creature Power Suit malfunctions. The other Wild Kratts aren't the only ones looking for Martin, either - Zach Varmitech plans to capture the Yeti and show it to people in exchange for money. Unfortunately for Martin, he is the closest thing to a Yeti in the mountains.
Plot[]
The episode opens with Chris and Martin Kratt hiking through the southern mountains of China just at the end of summer. The bros are looking for a type of monkey that can handle the coldest weather. And they soon find them: golden snub-nosed monkeys. With their golden fur, skeletal like noses, and blue faces, they're awesome looking creatures. The troop that Martin and Chris are wit is an all-male troop. But male or female, all golden snub-nosed monkeys have to take pride in making sure that their coats are well groomed. The brothers then wonder what it would be like to have the powers of the golden snub-nosed monkey and the show transitions into the cartoon segment.
The Wild Kratts crew are flying the Tortuga over the Daba Mountains, a range just near the Himalayas while the Kratt brothers are in the foothill region.
