A baby monkey abandoned by his mother has captured hearts online after being seen cuddling a soft toy for comfort, carrying it everywhere like a substitute parent.
Punch, a six-month-old macaque living at Ichikawa City Zoo in Japan, has unexpectedly become an internet favourite after clips of his behaviour began circulating widely on social media. In the videos, the tiny primate is shown clinging tightly to a stuffed orangutan, treating it as his constant companion.
