Humans have a soft spot for animals of all kinds, and looking at their pictures, or listening to their stories always brings joy to all of us. It also works the other way around when something bad happens to them, saddening us immediately.

Such has been the story of Punch the monkey, who has been going viral on social media, after photographs and videos of him sitting lonely with a stuffed toy went viral, making everybody around the world feel sorry for him, and wishing the best for him.
