FINDING COMFORT… Meet Panchi-kun, the baby monkey melting hearts across social media! The six month-old macaque, nicknamed Punch, has become an internet star after a series of videos showing him clinging to a plush toy were released. Punch was abandoned by his mother shortly after birth. He was rescued and taken in at the Ichikawa City Zoo in Japan. He was hand-fed by caretakers and slowly introduced to other monkeys. Unfortunately, they all rejected him (a video showing that is heartbreaking.)
