Punch, the abandoned monkey who soared to fame after being seen tugging around a stuffed toy, was filmed seeking comfort with the plushie after he was bullied by older monkeys at Ichikawa Zoo in Japan. The baby monkey was put into the macaque enclosure in late January following a period of hand-rearing by zoo keepers after he was abandoned by his mother. The orangutan plush was given to Punch to serve as a surrogate mother and to provide tactile comfort. #monkey #punch #fblifestyle | Daily Mail
