Punch, the abandoned baby monkey who soared to fame for tugging around a stuffed toy, ran to it for comfort after it was beaten by an older monkey at Ichikawa Zoo in Japan on Thursday. The monkey was put into a macaque enclosure in January following care from zookeepers after he was abandoned by his mother. The plush toy was given to Punch to serve as a surrogate mother and to provide tactile comfort. | CBS News

I made a goofy bird plushie from scratch. I used blender and plushify to make the pattern, and then I sewed them all together by hand. I make all my plushies with 3d modeling software first. this is a great egret plushie, and it is super floppy and posable! in this video, I show you how I make bird stuffed animal plushies. #sewing #plushies #stuffedanimals #furry #fursona | Caleb Northway
