"Baby Bro on the Hunt for Punch! 🥹

"Baby Bro found Punch's hiding spot! 🥹🤎🐵

They really do love Punch and miss him whenever he's not around. Watching the little one go on a mission to find him is just the sweetest thing ever. 🤗🥰 Baby gang & punch! 😍✨

Look at our sleeping beauty. 😍🐵

Needing his beauty sleep. 😴 He's absolutely adorable and so special. 🤎

There's only one Punch... never two. 🥹 I could watch him all day. He's an absolute dream to look at. ✨

@Diakarf No, it’s a male macaque.

[Sarah26🤎🧸🐵 @SarahPunch26]

Brothers from another mother? 🤎🐵 I can't get over how alike these two look! 😂😍 #punch

[A better weather day @AAAstraigt]

They're very similar. Not only the face, also the fur colour and the black fur on top of their heads. Kibi and Punch.

“Haha right? Punch didn’t even hesitate 😂 That baby scrambling after him with the little legs 🐵”

[Sarah26🤎🧸🐵 @SarahPunch26]

Haha! Punch's papas sound just like screaming gibbons when they're calling him into the back area. 🤣🐵

And clever little Punch knows exactly what it means and heads straight over. Meanwhile, the baby is like... "Punch, mate, wait up! I've only got little legs!" 😂🤎

That sounds like a lovely idea! The keepers at Ichikawa Zoo have been doing an amazing job looking after Punch through everything, and a wave of thank-you cards would be a really kind way to show them some support.

If anyone wants to send one, the address is:
Punch / Keepers
Ichikawa City Zoological & Botanical Garden
284-1 Omachi, Ichikawa City, Chiba 272-0801
Japan

Arigatou gozaimasu for suggesting it!

[Sarah26🤎🧸🐵 @SarahPunch26]

Bless him. He's so different from the rest. Always looking for peace. The look of, "I don't belong here." Sweet little saru. 🤎🐵✨

‼️✨The Party 👀 Crashers! 😂‼️

❤️‍🔥✨ Lil’ Punch was peacefully nibbling on his feet 👣 enjoying his “Me” time, as butterflies 🦋 flew around him when his little monkey gang bombarded his Zen 🧘‍♀️ one by one. 🙈 Punch tried to be a gracious host, 🎩 BUT, 💥 suddenly his gang began arguing 💥 THEN a BIG monkey gang 💥 COMMOTION broke out! Punch looked around as if thinking to himself, 🤔 “Ummm, what the?” ✨❤️‍🔥

Look how fabulous the senior monkeys’ winter fur coats look ✨
They are absolutely glowing — thick, fluffy, and perfectly ready for the cold season!

These elegant Japanese macaques are serving peak winter fashion goals. Who needs a designer coat when you’ve got natural luxury like this? ❄️🐒

@melody2angel2 “Yes! 21 August would be a perfect day for a little zoo anniversary celebration — especially while all those birthday cards for Punch are still up. Maybe a mini ‘Punch day’ with snow-monkey snacks and a special photo spot? 🐵❤️”

[Sarah26🤎🧸🐵 @SarahPunch26]

@melody2angel2 I’ve been to Japan for my honeymoon in 2012, then again in 2015 and 2018.
I just need to go back now that our Punch-kun is there — it’s such a wonderful place. I'll be sure to say hello to Punch-kun from you. 🙂🐵🤎

You’re very welcome! 🙏 🤗

[Sarah26🤎🧸🐵 @SarahPunch26]

@melody2angel2 Haha the idea of a Punch Amusement Park is too cute 😂
Imagine little Punch rides, snow-monkey themed snacks, and a giant statue of him giving kisses.

Even if it stays in Japan for now… a girl can dream!
Sending good vibes for Japan and for the Obon season 🙏

[Sarah26🤎🧸🐵 @SarahPunch26]

Grooming sessions don't always go to plan! 😂🐵

A little nip here, a little squeal there... and Punch-kun's expressions are absolutely priceless! 🤣🤎 Despite the dramatic faces, this is all part of normal macaque social grooming.

These photos are comedy gold! 😂✨

@melody2angel2 “Disney + Punch = instant hit. I’d watch every episode of Monkey Mountain Mission 😂
Punch already has the star power (and the kisses). Let’s make it happen, ABC!”

[Sarah26🤎🧸🐵 @SarahPunch26]

fighting over our Punch, while Punch just lies there like, "I'm waiting for my groom here." 😂🤎

Legs up in the air, like the little prince he is. 🐵👑✨ that belly scratch 😅

The look on his face after the bite to his middle parts said it all. 🤣🐵

@SarahPunch26 Sakura 🌸 will rule Monkey Mountain and Punch will be the preacher, he'd look good with a white collar.

[Sarah26🤎🧸🐵 @SarahPunch26]

@melody2angel2 😂 “Punch in a white collar preaching kindness on Monkey Mountain while Sakura runs the whole place… I need this spin-off series immediately.”

[Sarah26🤎🧸🐵 @SarahPunch26]

It's always refreshing to see Punch-kun playing with the baby gang. 🤎🐵 Their little adventures never fail to make me smile. ✨
