Punch quickly gained popularity online after videos of him went viral, leading to memes, fan-made content, and lots of conversation on social media.

The sudden popularity of the video also led people to take a closer look at how monkeys are treated when they’re used in online videos. Animal welfare groups and online communities started questioning the filming and handling practices used with monkeys like Punch.

Ever since then, Punch the monkey has stayed popular online, with his picture still being shared in memes and viral posts.

The popular shoe brand Crocs is releasing new Jibbitz charms featuring the monkey that recently went viral online, continuing a trend of internet sensations appearing on merchandise.
