He even has his own Wikipedia page.

quote:

Punch, a 7-month-old macaque monkey, had no friends.

His mother abandoned him. He wasn’t quite fitting in with the other monkeys at Ichikawa City Zoo, outside Tokyo. The closest thing he had to loved ones were the zookeepers who look after him, and a stuffed animal from IKEA.

But a series of widely shared posts showing his predicament — including a hashtag started by the zoo, #HangInTherePunch — have put Punch in the global spotlight and made him somewhat of an internet celebrity.

Does he know his stuffed animal isn’t a real monkey? What an idiot!

It is best to be upfront about these things. Get our macaques in a row, so to speak, so as to avoid any embarrassing mishaps.

I know you’re being sarcastic. You have to be being sarcastic, right.
