After being rejected by his mother shortly after birth, Punch was hand-raised by zookeepers at Ichikawa City Zoo in Japan. When he was later introduced to other macaques, he struggled to integrate socially—a challenge that can occur in primates raised without maternal care. To provide comfort, keepers gave him blankets and stuffed toys, and he formed a strong attachment to one plush toy in particular. He is often seen clinging to or grooming it, behavior consistent with surrogate attachment patterns documented in hand-reared monkeys separated early from their mothers.
