[@5cats2kids8]

Love, love, LOVE this! Their teeth look so healthy, and they all look so wonderfully happy and healthy!

[@lkjduncan2767]

Oh my gosh they have grown so much. I hardly recognize them. I had to go back and try to find them to see how the use to look. It would have been fun to see a then and now picture. But regardless I loved this. Thanks for catching us up.

[@VervetMonkey]

lkj Duncan I was hoping to put some then and now shots into the video but I ended up editing down to the wire. But I think I’m gonna release a video that is simply a montage of then and now shots of the babies.

[@marygingg8005]

That would be an awesome video, Kyle, of "then & now photos" & would help us to learn the monkeys as well. Thank you.

[@cd1673]

Wow, they look great, so healthy and happy. How can you tell which is which?? No diapers, no cat towers, no big bitey dog, no spoon feeding... ugh, this new "pet owner" makes me cringe. Thank you for doing what you do to help raise awareness ❤😊 🍃🌹🍃

[@VervetMonkey]

CD 1 💚😊 you just gotta find the subtle differences. Thick or thin brow line, downturned or upturned brow. Nicks in the ears, patches of color on the face. If you pause the video on the different babies and look at them side by side I guarantee you’ll begin to see subtle differences.

[@rustyanneyakel]

Janet has such a sweet pretty face, she's a little doll. .

[@jessicadelpielago8549]

Oh my gosh, they all look so different!!! I love the combination of Groots little dark face with his light colored fur. I’m a little surprised he’s not spending time with his foster mama. He seemed like such a little clinger as a baby, lol. Wonderful video Kyle, just wonderful 😍❤️😍❤️😍.

[@VervetMonkey]

Jessica del Pielago thanks! Yeah Groot has really grown up! It’s great. 😊

[@evelynlachaprlle1025]

[@berthawhittaker2082]

They are so adorable, y'all are doing a great job.

[@VervetMonkey]

Bertha Whittaker Thanks!

[@fukkyoutube]

sooo was that the monkeys jamin to eminem in the backround

[@trob526]

HEY KYLE! It's amazing how fast they've grown! So adorable! I GOT MY T-SHIRTS TODAY!! YAY!! Thank you so much! I got my pics and wallpaper too. I love love love the merch!! I'm getting a hoodie next week! Love the vids, the pics, the merch....I just love it all Kyle, thank you for the amazing content, commentary, and work you put in. BTW, my husband and I are going to Africa next May! Not sure where quite yet but, if you have any suggestions or advice, that would be fantastic! Can't wait for the next video! ❤❤🤗🤗❤❤

[@VervetMonkey]

Traci Roberts Amazing! Thank you so much Traci, I’m glad your pleased with everything 😁💚 Oh congrats! That’s gonna be a ton of fun. I can’t wait to hear where u decide to go. I’ve never been to any other countries but South Africa (planning on it though) but if you have questions about traveling here please don’t hesitate to ask 😊

[@sandramiller8737]

Can the lower level monkeys become higher in rank?

[@marygingg8005]

As a Nurse I am used to the word "sickbay" being a place for the sick. Is the Sickbay Troop just for sick or monkeys needing rehab? I haven't been a viewer for very long so am not that familiar with the monkeys in that Troop. Is there any thing Stick can't do because of his shortened tail or has he just learned to adapt & compensate for it? It looks like he climbs trees just fine. Love your videos!!

[@VervetMonkey]

Sickbay is not just for sick monkeys It's just near our sickbay and some monkeys that were there originally went into that troop. Stick is not handicapped at all by his tail, he's a champion. Thanks!

[@sarah.harasboucher5202]

I just love you guys and of course love all these amazing furbabies!! Thank you for all you do to help these gorgeous intelligent creatures, I hate when I watch videos and see someone call them pests, vermin and other nasty comments and say they all should be killed and tortured....so sickening to see people so nasty. I know you deal with this every day and I’m so happy you work to educate people on why they do what they do....including eating the crops when at once this was their land, sometimes as humans we forget to think of the consequences of our actions whereas these wild animals are just living their life not knowing they are doing anything wrong. Keep up the good work, you all are truly making a difference.

[@elidadeiulio792]

Love the video I can’t believe how big they are but they are still beautiful. It’s so funny how curious they are when they get so close to the camera or cell phone I’m not sure what you use but I love the amazing job you all do

[@VervetMonkey]

Elida Deiulio 😊 It’s amazing how fast they grow. Camera, most of the close up stuff like that is on the GoPro

[@Shelbegt]

Oh my gosh they all have gown so fast. I’m glad to see them all doing well. Thank You for the video I know there’s a lot of work put into them from shooting the video to editing them & putting them on here. So thumbs up to you well done❣️

[@VervetMonkey]

Shelbe Colledge Thanks Shelbe, I was definitely working on this one down to the wire. I’m quite excited to take a day off today lol 😊 I’m glad you enjoy the videos ✌️💚

[@pamelahollier4365]

Thank you so much for the delightful update. Everyone looks as if they are all living the best life ever.

[@VervetMonkey]

Pamela Hollier you’re very welcome and I would agree. All the babies a very happy and content 😁

[@teach4him2]

So, since Kobe doesn't have a foster mom, how does he get motherly affection?

[@VervetMonkey]

Cheri1 he’s still friends with the females. But at his age motherly affection isn’t so necessary. It’s more about being groomed and having friends at this point for him.

[@sherj63w46]

Awwe so adorable!!!!!😇😇😇

[@dolorescardenas3853]

Thanks for the update...nice to see how they are growing up and doing amazing☺

[@VervetMonkey]

Dolores Cardenas 👍

[@beckyfelger1792]

[@teach4him2]

Tehy are all so adorable! I am so excited that I get to watch them grow and do well!!!

[@biggirl1842]

Yay up another thousand subscribers!!! Keep up the awesome work guys!! Loving all the new material Kyle! Peace and love,Stephanie, New Brunswick, Canada

[@dianebishopogden2835]

Beautiful video! ! Totally enjoyed it!

[@lolzfnafp9112]

They are beautiful animals. I'm so happy for them. You all have done an amazing job with them.

[@VervetMonkey]

the aphmau shiper gaming Thanks ☺️

[@stormymartin8350]

My baby groot got so big thank you for video

[@VervetMonkey]

Stormy Martin 😊✌️

[@lulumom76]

Question? What age are they considered juveniles instead of babies?

[@VervetMonkey]

0 - 1 year is babyish. They aren’t really babies after about 7 months. But 1 - 2 yearsish are juveniles and 3 - 4.5 are sub adults then after that they’re adults.

[@judithmcnease4100]

Omg where did your beard go??!!?? 🧔 Someone got a haircut 😁

[@VervetMonkey]

Judith McNease I accidentally ate it in my sleep 😩🤷‍♂️😄

[@geeneeb]

I'm amazed at the wonderful job you continue to do for the foundation! You are an amazingly talented man. Prayers for your continued success and for the welfare of these precious little creatures and all that take care of them. Bless you!

[@VervetMonkey]

Jeannie Bosch ❤️☺️ thank you

[@judithmcnease4100]

Yessh!! Excited about 911 episode!! And I just bought a shirt and some stickahs!! Woot!! 😍 😁

[@VervetMonkey]

Judith McNease awesome! Which shirt did ya get??

[@aprillondon2711]

you deserve the money kyle i know its to help u support ur needs so inturn u can do what u love what we love watching u do.

[@VervetMonkey]

April London ❤️☺️ Thank you very much April.

[@terriegamino4415]

I don't know if this question has been asked/answered, but if the foster moms (bless their hearts) aren't lactating, do the kids get to come back for milk or are they fully weaned at that point. I love these special little ones and grown ups...Definitely wouldn't want them as pets! But I do have the urge to want to shnuggle bunny them!

[@michellecogdill4362]

Aww...all these babies have grown up so much and they all are just beautiful!! The sounds they make is the cutest!! I am so happy to see all of these babies are doing so well!! Compared to when they first arrived there!! You guy's do amazing things for ALL of these babies!! You guy's for sure have very big hearts to do what you do!! Much love from Knoxville, Tn(usa) 🙊🙉🙈👍✌👏❤

[@ferretisland2945]

May seem like a strange question...but do the monkeys have a certain scent to them? Ferrets tend to smell sweet or like corn chips...

[@VervetMonkey]

Ferret Island Yes! They smell like wet leaves and dirt. 😊 Ferret smell sounds a lot more inviting 😄

[@VervetMonkey]

Ferret Island 😄 lol, that’s amazing!

[@janicesnell650]

Glad you let us know to click on the ads as you will get some credit for that. I have no idea how this all works. I am on Social Security, so if I can help some way w/out having to send $, then I will be clicking away on the ads for you; but I do not buy anything....JanicePort Townsend, WA, USA

[@thereseember2800]

It seems that you worked especially hard on this video. We deeply appreciate it. Have you memorized 500 names of monkeys there now, Kyle?

[@kim3295]

This is amazing. You deserve so many more subscribers. There’s a married couple on KZbin that bought a 3 week old baby vervet monkey in the US and their page is all about their baby monkey. and they just started their page a month ago and are already at 140,000 subscribers.

[@kim3295]

Vervet Monkey Foundation it’s definitely hard to watch a baby monkey running around in a huge diaper and freaking out bc their “mommy” is ripping his hands off her shirt and sitting him down in a park with a leash on and saying “go play” for the camera ☹️

[@VervetMonkey]

Yeah, its gross and knowing how these monkeys live when free, it really just makes me sick to my stomach while I'm watching it. I plan on releasing a "Why Monkeys Are Not Pets" Video in a couple weeks, for several reasons, but also as a response to this whole Max situation.

[@kim3295]

Vervet Monkey Foundation i found your page bc of them, but aside from that, it’s painful to watch and I hope that they will see the video you’ll make in the future and have a change of heart ❤️ not even in the future though, after watching any of the videos on ur channel I don’t know how someone can keep them in a house and a crate after seeing them with other monkeys 😟

[@fairylovr33]

Kyle how did you start out volunteering w the vervet foundation? How have you been volunteering thus far? I can’t believe how big they’ve all become! WoW! They sure do grow fast. I loved this video and I hope we get at least one or two more updates 🐒😊

[@carlalindstrom5829]

keep up the good job, they need people like you all at Vervet Monkey Foundation and I love watching them join their new families and grow

[@stephanymariejones]

I can’t believe how big they’ve all gotten in such a short time. How do you keep track of them all?

[@lorilaunius7263]

BRAVO Kyle, Bravo!👏👏👏👏👏👏🙌

[@VervetMonkey]

Lori Launius 😊 Thanks Lori.

[@teach4him2]

Does Mr Myagi get any motherly love?

[@VervetMonkey]

Cheri1 yes. But he’s older now and doesn’t really crave it. He mostly gets affection as anyone else in the troop does.

[@KirstieGiles]

Can you make a pay pal please xxx

[@margaretpeggymitchell3138]

Not an update.

[@marygingg8005]
