Punch-- the monkey

[Southernmiss]

A monkey in Japan was rejected by his mother and now has a stuffed orangutan friend that is helping him get by.

Such a heart warming story

It is lovely now he is being more accepted.

Odd coincidence they named him Punch though Poor baby!

I'm happy that an adult has taken him under their wing and is trying to help them get better acclimated with how things work in their group. His time away from them all, where he was being tended to by humans, seems to have given him some habits that the others find troubling. I don't understand how it all works but I read some things about it on Reddit where an animal specialist described how it all worked. It's nice to see he's getting the help in learning how things work. Hopefully over time he'll just be one of the group.
