#DOITFORPUNCH - The Cutscene
Skip to content
Meet Punch, a Japanese macaque living at the Ichikawa City Zoo in Japan, who has stolen hearts all over the world with his beloved plush orangutan toy.Abandoned by his mother as a baby, Punch became an orphan and was introduced to a group of around 60 other macaques.
Without a maternal figure, fitting in was tough, he was often pushed aside, ignored, and even attacked. But no matter how hard things got, Punch always ran back to his very first friend, his IKEA orangutan plush, for comfort and reassurance.Since his videos went viral, Punch’s life has been slowly but surely transforming.
He’s making new friends, exploring his world with more confidence, and being showered with love and attention from everyone around him. Spoiled and adored by his caretakers and fellow monkeys alike, Punch is a little fighter with a big heart,and there’s no doubt he’s destined to charm his way to the top one day.
PAN AFRICAN SANCUTARY ALLIANCE
When you support the Pan African Sanctuary Alliance (PASA), you’re helping rescue and protect Africa’s most vulnerable primates, including chimpanzees, gorillas, and monkeys.
PASA brings together 23 accredited sanctuaries across 13 countries, providing safe havens for primates rescued from the illegal pet trade, poaching, habitat loss, and abuse. Every contribution goes directly to giving these animals urgent medical care, nutritious food, safe shelter, and lifelong enrichment.
Thanks to PASA and its sanctuaries, over 3,400 primates have been rescued and cared for, with many rehabilitated and even reintroduced into the wild when possible. Your support doesn’t just help individual animals, it strengthens wild populations, protects habitats, and empowers local communities through education, job creation, and conservation programs.
When you buy or donate, you’re directly helping primates in similar situations to punch and hundreds of others find safety, care, and a chance at a better life. Funds are used for everything from daily care and medical treatment to emergency support during crisis, and even training local veterinarians and sanctuary staff to provide the best possible care.
By choosing to support PASA, you’re making a real difference. You’re not just buying a product, you’re saving lives, protecting wildlife, and helping build a future where primates can thrive.
