[@kathylavery8349]

I have been so impressed that I couldn't stop talking to people on utube that enjoyed watching monkeys . They were on the bad / abusive channel that used the monkeys to preform , and do the show business as long as possible . When they weren't cute anymore they would get rid of them in some way . Those channels are incredibly discusting and horribly abusive . They didn't care about the monkeys at any time . I wanted to go through my tablet and do to those people what they were doing to those monkeys . When I found your channel , I felt like I was in heaven . I loved how you took these monkeys and checked them out and , when it was time , started them on a step by step orientation back into a troop . I watched as possible mom's were watched closely to see if that adoption was going to be a good one . To watch those mom's with patients for the babies to be comfortable with each other . Your organization is by far the best one I know of and it frustrates me that I'm not able to be part of it , to be physically there to be a surrogate until it's time to let go and be part of a troop . I don't know if there is more I can do to help . I'm a disabled person in a wheelchair that barely gets enough to survive on financially . Animals of all kinds I somehow gain their trust very quickly . They are and always will be my friends and family . Do you have any ideas what I could do to help the monkeys or the organization in general ?

[@marcysikes]

I have unsubscribed to all other monkey videos. I don’t know if The Vervet Foundation is the only legitimate site or not but it is the only one I feel good about! Much success!

[@theoriginalstuporgirl6599]

Kyle, you are the bestest spokesperson. You glow compassion and have humor through it all. No doubt, it's a necessity. As in life. Lol

[@VervetMonkey]

:) Thanks!

[@cherylbanks7082]

🤣

[@ferretisland2945]

Oh my word you are busy! I cannot get over how much these creatures express themselves like humans! I'm always in awe 💓 Thank you for all you do and for putting a smile on my face on a sad day....one of my male ferrets, Zeus, had to be euthanized 💔 A decision no animal lover takes lightly even when it is for the best.

[@VervetMonkey]

Ferret Island Awe, I’m so sorry to hear that. It’s never easy to let an animal go like that. I’m glad we could bring a smile to your face. 😊

[@marihernandez6561]

I get so happy when they find a mom ❤️❤️

[@VervetMonkey]

Mari Hernandez so do we! Lol

[@marihernandez6561]

I know this is old. But Benjamin is underrated! So cute! 😍😍😍

[@5cats2kids8]

I am so in love with this series. The whole thing. I hope it will continue!

[@yewedono530]

You guys are AWESOME!! Kyle and staff seem very caring & personable. .. What a great thing you guys are doing for those adorable monkeys. A+++ !!!!

[@l-bird]

As always, thank you for sharing another rewarding video! Glad to see Peggy, Joli and Dylan gaining confidence and are learning to embrace being real monkeys. Every story touches my heart. You all do incredible work!

[@VervetMonkey]

[@l-bird]

Indeed 😊

[@l.johnperry4072]

You guys are doing a spectacular job helping these beautiful babies survive... A+

Thanks Leo.

[@earlenepeterson8065]

You said "that's it" and I started laughing and said "THAT'S IT" is that all??? Holly Cow. do you ever rest? :)

[@SCTyler]

Is it possible someone hurt this little girl? They are not usually this vicious at this age. What are you thoughts.

[@susansharphaynes555]

Poor Babies thank goodness they have al of you there!

[@erickam9043]

Am soooooo glad Merlin has blossomed!!! from his beyond horrible start in life you've all performed a small miracle bringing him around to healthy baby! Poor Stick!! What a trooper he is!! Rooting for him to make a full recovery!!! You go lil guy!!!

[@tmterrill1]

Can I get someone to wrap ME up like a burrito until I fall asleep? That would be super great, thanks.

[@VervetMonkey]

I'm pretty sure they have support groups for that.

[@christinesmith7505]

Kyle you’re an awesome commentator. The entire rescue crew is incredible. It’s impossible to have a 100% success rate with reintroduction of all of the orphans, but you’ve certainly given it your best. It’s a trial & error with each orphan’s personality. I’m impressed with your extraordinary success rate. You can’t predict wild animals nor control entire troop behavior, but by golly, you’re meeting the challenges as best you can. Many thanks to all the volunteers. Never allow negative comments to dissuade you from doing what you think is best. Viewers aren’t in the thick of things, as you are. I support you always, no matter the outcome. Keep up the awesome work.

[@amandaellison4892]

So precious! Y’all do such an awesome job. The babies are so healthy and happy.

[@kccutter5869]

The feeling I got when I watched the orphans find a new momma made me click on another adoption video. I feel the love. Such an amazing frequency .

[@susancaballeroaloui4756]

Hey, one of the best episodes I've seen so far! Hats off to you and your team for being so hard working and dedicated to these monkeys. You have such a great process to get the babies through all the stages so when they go out into the troops they are ready. Love it!!

[@deborahkimball-billups6405]

That is the best monkey story I ever heard....poor Peggy.

[@dannyslovebug]

Wow! Timothy does look a lot like Merlin. Those little faces melt my heart! Thank you so much for the update! Many blessings to you all!

[@VervetMonkey]

[@VervetMonkey]

Wins L.G. Thank you so much, that means a lot.

[@rebekah3483]

Kyle, I LOVE the way you told the story of the old hobo and scrangy woman! It had me lol seriously!! When these babies bite (at 3 months old), do they break the skin?

[@deborahkimball-billups6405]

Omgosh that is a crazy good story . I cant stop laughing 😆

[@donnabledsoe5257]

Watched, so great what y'all are doing, wish I could help, I do watch the ads.

[@glittergirl72]

Kyle, I am a bit behind but catching up! You are all doing such a great job! And you, being the face of the group-are doing very well. Thanks to all for everything you do! I wish I were in a position to help with fund-raising. Do you guys have something going in America?

[@VervetMonkey]

Carrie Hoover thanks very much Carrie, I’m glad you’re enjoying to show and our mission so much that you’d like to help out, that means a lot to me and everyone else. First off, the best thing you can do to help us fundraiser is very simple - please watch through all advertisements on the videos and click on any you can, that helps us earn money. Also share the videos on Facebook and anywhere you can, telling friends and family and coworkers, because the growth that comes from that can be tremendous. Second, yes we do have some stuff occurring in the US, my friend and past VMF staff member Meg runs Vervet Monkey USA. That is our non-profit US counterpart and she works to hold screenings of the film and to do fundraising and outreach at vegan and animal rights festivals. We are always looking for more help, especially with fundraising and spreading awareness for the forest. If you are interested, I’m sure we can find a way for you to help. Please send me an email - [e-mail]

[@sarah.harasboucher5202]

Love Misses Gold she is such a good Mom to these orphans. I have a question are there many other species of monkeys who will be surrogate mom to orphans? It seems like when I watch the other videos for other species like long tail macaques they will kidnap but usually do more harm than good...the pig tail do seem more affectionate to other babies but still have yet to see one full on be a mom. I know this video is a year old but I was hoping that maybe you still answer questions. Thank you and keep posting these videos they are so educational and fun to watch.

[@sarah.harasboucher5202]

Vervet Monkey Foundation thank you for getting back to me. I have to say that makes it all the more impressive . I’m just so in awe of these gorgeous creatures and their willingness to adapt and help each other despite it being the norm. Thank you again for all you guys do to help as well as educating us. I will be sure to donate to help as well as share your videos on social media, your videos on KZbin are the only ones I make sure to watch the advertisements all the way through. I absolutely hate watching commercials and advertisements so for me to sit through them says a lot lol. Thank you again for all you guys do to help! I look forward to watching more videos. Have an amazing day! 🙉🙊🙈

[@cindyjulian9534]

You guys have wonderful foster mothers. You can tell they love to foster the babies and they dont care how many they have. Another baby comes around and that baby gets pulled into waiting arms. Its wonderful to see that. Iv been watching a troup at angkor watt temple. Wow most of the mothers are horrible to their babies. Most are overweight too. Thank you for everthing you people do to help these animals. Im just curious do you let your females breed or are they fixed.

[@VervetMonkey]

Cindy Julian Thanks Cindy. All of our males get vasectomies at 2.5 years of age. There are the occasional births that occur to some of the Bandits due to migrating males who hadn’t been around in the past and we haven’t been able to vasectomize. But our mission is care and rehabilitation not breeding 🙂

[@kaidosbuddyagaindoberman9119]

Does Hanna even have teeth? I get she’s biting, not good I guess but must be a gum job, no?

[@VervetMonkey]

Kaidosbuddyagain Doberman lol, gum job. But yeah she’s got some serious teeth. Once their her age all their baby teeth are well in and they’re razor sharp, not like an adult obviously who’s got the massive k-9’s that do some serious damage, but it’s still not pleasant. It’s less of a puncture and more of just a sharp grinding and scraping on the skin, they can tear you up pretty good. Nothing life threatening, but it for sure makes you not want to grab them with your bare hands when they’re on a tirade.

[@MoonmaidenNYC]

Great to hear that the Goliath babies are doing so well with Mrs Gold !! Awww Elliot meets Visu (spelling?), Fantastic indeed !! Oh my goodness, poor baby Stick☹️So sweet seeing Bernadette hugging Groot & Savannah !! Yay for Dylan !! Big welcome to Benjamin, Timothy & Hannah !! Thank you for sharing this lovely video with us!! 💞Vivi💞

[@kathymacomber5115]

Sorry ferret island😞

[@kathymacomber5115]

Poor poor stick

[@FilmerOfBobcats]

Do vervets have nictitating membranes in their eyes? It looked that way in the closeup of one of the babies slowly falling asleep.

[@VervetMonkey]

FilmerOfBobcats nah, lol but it totally looked that way! Those were just the very milk drunk eyes rolling into the back of the head of a young Benjamin. 🙂

[@FilmerOfBobcats]

Do the adult males readily tolerate the new babies that come into the troop and are not theirs?

[@VervetMonkey]

In Vervet world they dont really know who the farther is, so males are not really much of a concern and dont seem to mind the babies at all, the females are also very protective and would pick up a baby monkey and carry it away

7:29 I felt like Kyle was bracing us for something serious or some thing, the way his whole face and demeanor changed as he tells us about how things don’t go as planned there 😱 I completely expected him to tell us that a baby died or something heartbreaking like that... And then he says they got two 🐒 new 🐒 babies!?!? 😳 ❕❔❕🙈🙉🙊 I’m glad it wasn’t what I thought it was going to be 🙏🐵🥰 but what the heck was up with his delivery of the next part of the episode??? 🧐🤔

[@lisapinson2518]

I have only watched a couple of your videos on these monkey's.Im thankful I found your videos. I'm wondering if a baby has ever been hurt or killed when introducing them to a new potential mother?It seems they accept them easily. And I don't mean this as a rude comment.Just wondering. Thanks for all you do.

[@bobbypaluga4346]

Hannah or the Vampiress from the depths of hell. That loud, goat like, noise she makes would send me running. Do you have to deal directly with a monkey that would prefer to chew your flesh off your bones or does it help with Hannah the Vampiress mixes with other monkeys and sees that they aren't nibbling on human flesh? Basic question, when a monkey has some very destructive habits, do you all have to find a way to "fix" her biting, or does she learn not to bite by being around others monkeys?

[@michaelbeary]

You can't reunite timmy with his troop or mother?

[@VervetMonkey]

Unfortunately no one saw the troop around. And there wasn't a troop that was commonly seen in the area. Also, it's so much more difficult to release a baby than a juvenile or adult. The babies won't just willingly run out to a troop even if its their own troop. The baby will sit and cry and wait for its mom. So with babies being released you have to be certain that its mom is around and you have to try to get the mom to come to the baby so you can be sure its the right female before you release it, otherwise the baby could easily be killed by another defensive mother or an aggressive male.
