The moment we've all been waiting for Baby Punch is finally being accepted by the older monkeys! After months of clinging to his plushie orangutan "mom" for comfort, our resilient little macaque is getting real troop love. Gentle grooming, warm hugs, and embraces from adults at Ichikawa City Zoo. Grooming means trust and belonging in monkey world, this is huge progress!
