Over the past few weeks, a baby macaque at Japan’s Ichikawa City Zoo named Punch has taken the internet by storm. Viral videos capture the 7-month-old monkey getting shoved away by older members of his group and turning to a stuffed orangutan toy for comfort.
The zoo says Punch is adjusting to troop life amid growing attention, with staff insisting “animal welfare is the top priority” following visitor concerns.
