Panchi Kun, a Macaque baby monkey abandoned by his mother was given an orangutan stuffed-toy by zoo staff as a comforter and became a viral hit on the net. Zoo visits shot up and tearful Instagram fans across the globe cheered him on as he eventually became socialized and accepted into the Macaque tribe.
He was born 26 July 2025 in Ichikawa, Japan as the new era dawned with his Leo Sun forming a Half Grand Sextile in opposition to Pluto which is sextile/trine Uranus in Gemini and Saturn Neptune in Aries. Destined to have an impact. His Mercury and Moon are also in attention-seeking Leo and he has Jupiter in home-loving Cancer. He also has his Mars in Virgo opposition North Node and Nessus square Venus in social-butterfly Gemini – so perhaps a hint of keeping-the-faith Pisces North Node for better times to come.
They even look alike!
Arrigato Marjorie!
Good to see little Panchi Kan slowly find some acceptance – god help that zoo if anything happens to him ! Yes, an unexpected windfall for IKEA. Expecting to see a million influencers clutch them on tiktok any day soon.
Ganbare Panchi-kan !
I believe that the orangutan stuffed toy is by IKEA and it has been selling out.
No advertising like pure accidental advertising.
I think there is enough unpleasantness in the news nowadays. We want some innocence.
My heart gladdens when I see good like this.
