This site is an independent, English-language archive of Punch-kun's story. It is not affiliated with Ichikawa City Zoo and does not speak for the zoo or its staff.
Every entry in the timeline and every update on the site is tagged by source class — Official, Press, or Editorial — so readers can see at a glance where a claim is coming from. Where we cannot responsibly source a claim, we either cite it as editorial commentary or leave it out.
We are not running a campaign. We are trying to keep the record tidy.
