- 0:21Speaker 2: Yeah, everybody loves Punch, and Punch adopted, you know, the
- 0:24Speaker 2: little stuffed monkey because his mommy had abandoned him.

- 0:34Speaker 2: I know people want to see him. But these two
- 0:36Speaker 2: guys decided to jump into the enclosure. Yeah. The monkey
- 0:42Speaker 2: enclosure authority say uh that they moved very quickly to
- 0:48Speaker 2: stop them. I guess they wanted to hang with Punch.
- 0:51Speaker 2: There were no injuries or harm to the monkeys or
- 0:54Speaker 2: to the two guys, but they now faced some very
- 0:58Speaker 2: very serious charges. I bet authorities say they also tried
- 1:02Speaker 2: to give false names when they were first approached, like oh,
- 1:05Speaker 2: it's not me. And in response to the zoo plans
- 1:08Speaker 2: tighter security around the exhibit, including barriers and increased patrols,
- 1:12Speaker 2: as well as possible restrictions on filming. They said they
- 1:16Speaker 2: want to allow more access because it's been so popular
- 1:20Speaker 2: since Punch. They're trying to expand that more people can
- 1:23Speaker 2: see at the same time.
- 1:25Speaker 1: But it's also not helping in the same aspects.
