Poor Punch macaque.

Zoos are gross and inhumane. This is type of behavior happens when animals are kept in captivity and it’s really gross to portray the zoo as the “nice” party for giving a 10€ plush as a replacement mom.
I am no fan of zoos, but this behavior happens in the wild as well, when the mother is stressed, inexperienced, and/or lacks social support. Nature can be really fucking cruel and inhumane. Many and more animal babies die of starvation before they can get through their first few days… some species it’s actually more common than successful parentage.

This is so god damn sad
