00:04This little monkey has captured the hearts of visitors in Tokyo, and far beyond.
00:10Not through tricks or performances, but through his touching story.
00:27Punch, a young macaque monkey, was born seven months ago.
00:32Shortly after, his mother abandoned him, leaving him completely alone.
00:39Zookeepers stepped in immediately, searching for anything that could give him the sense of safety he was missing.
00:46After several attempts, they chose a monkey-shaped stuffed doll.
00:52From that day on, Punch refuses to part with his new companion, dragging it along wherever he goes, even though
01:00the doll is bigger than he is.
01:12Zoo staff say Punch has gradually begun integrating with the other monkeys, despite a difficult start.
01:19The scene quickly spread across social media, turning Punch into a must-see attraction for zoo visitors,
01:25many of whom see his story as a small but powerful symbol of resilience.
