This is a good post I hope ppl watch and realize monkeys are not pets and taking them for views and to sell is abuse

[@Freedom384]

Them smart then Sam age child 👦

[@sherylF5610]

Poor baby Anita. The image of her sleeping was bittersweet. I do not believe I had ever seen an infant Vervet frown like she did after waking.

[@susanriley-wr6mg]

Ohhhhhh, what a sweetie 😘. People are so cruel 😢. Thank God for your organization 🙏 the work and care you provide for these precious little monkeys. Most of the stories are so heartbreaking 💔.

[@ctconn35]

I forgot how tiny they are and so adorable!! I enjoy this so much, thank you as always for being a great bunch

[@VervetMonkey]

You are so welcome!

[@jensherman2771]

Ricardo will help the tiny Anita grow strong! Their tiny perfect hands always reach into my heart and pull out all the love that also helps them grow. Vervet monkeys are my happy place! Thank you all for all you do and all you are. 💛💛💛

[@adriannegrillo8394]

So precious when Anita and Ricardo were napping together 😍😍

[@korrinschilling9909]

Thank you folks for all you do! ❤

[@VervetMonkey]

Any time!

[@maybarnard1088]

Anita is such a little sweetheart, it will be an absolute delight to follow her progress as she finds her foster mother.

[@Fadedecho1]

Omg this cuteness is something. I love monkeys but they have multiple personalities. It's definitely sad to see baby from mom. And mom dead. Wow heartbreaking 💔.

[@debiehale2479]

😊❤baby you are just so beautiful 🦋🌺❤🦋

[@kathieh7012]

Precious little Anita, I'm sooo horribly sorry that you lost your Mother!😢 Being at VMF is exactly where you need to be to get the absolute best care ever! Stay strong little one! ❤❤

[@lillievalentine8800]

Anita is a beautiful baby. I know the foster moms will love her. And Riccardo is just a pro at the feeding cage. Smart boy!

[@simonepretorius8235]

I am so happy that she is now safe and in a loving enviroment. Thank you for what you do. Happy we could hand her to your foundation and give her a chance at life. ❤❤ we love you little girl🩷

[@renatezylla1421]

Anita is so cute - but you can feel how sad she is about losing her mom...it's good that she has little Riccardo at her side to play with

[@dorothydeese759]

Riccardo has grown and looks he is ready to move on. Little Anita is so tiny and cute. She seemed like she could handle Ricardo tho. Thanks for all you do for these little ones.❤

[@lisacolbert5987]

Am I imagining that little Ricardo senses that Anita is sad ? He is so dear with her. Very touching. Thanks you guys ! 👍🏽🫶🏽👏🏽😂

[@VervetMonkey]

Our pleasure!

[@mofolk8896]

Riccardo really has the hang of the feeding cage❤ and is challenging Anita to get her playface on! Nice for her to have a big brother to learn from.

[@idbalendo]

¡¡¡Pobre criatura!!! 😢En vuestras manos saldrá adelante esta preciosidad y Ricardo será un buen compañero.😍😍 Gracias por todo lo que hacéis, equipo❤❤❤

[@Freedom384]

She is so beautiful and money smart too

[@urban_fox4658]

Thank you for being the good guys! Anita’s face was so cute while you fed her for the first time in the car. Such disdain! 😂

[@NewyearsFest]

They are just so tiny!

[@jimbowers5402]

Great work as usual!

[@VervetMonkey]

Appreciate that

[@stephend-fv6nw]

Thank you for season 7! Looking forward to many more!

[@VervetMonkey]

[@heatherwhatever7714]

Congratulations on that award.

[@annakovaleva324]

[@sheriwelker5991]

Ohmygosh, they're so cute!!

[@dreport9433]

Yall are amazing people. All of your staff is so caring. Please keep up the fantastic work yall do.

[@terismidt4920]

What does this foundation do? This is a nice change from seeing the little cuties in clothes and diapers. They get to be their natural self.

[@tinydancer36]

Poor sweet baby...looks like she's closing her eyes hoping when she opens them back up the last few days have never happened.

[@victorrichenstein1646]

Thanks!

[@stephanieb7311]

So sad Humans can be so cruel. The Devil rules this world and this is just more proof.

[@Bethsabee_Sheba_Newrose]

Shame on you to say a wonderful rescue group filled with good, loving Humans like this “is just more proof”?!

[@SunshineInCA14]

Hey VMF! It’s been awhile but I continue to be in awe of all your hard work, passion & dedication to the vervets. Much love to the VMF team & the monkeys! 💚💚💚

[@VervetMonkey]

Much appreciated

[@counsellortroy]

They are do gorgeous. I’m so glad you are there for them ❤

[@VervetMonkey]

Thank you so much!

[@lisacolbert5987]

The light down there in the early evening is beautiful. We used to get a similar quality of sunlight up here in the Pacific Northwest , U.S. at least in late summer, but we just don’t anymore. That light that is referred to as “the golden hour” by people in the film business. Not sure what they call it now ? Because it doesn’t happen anymore.

[@robloxuserislavendarsbesti832]

Anita is doing so well considering. She seems like she’s becoming happier since her arrival. I have always wanted to volunteer to help the babies. But at this time we are financially strained but is an ultimate goal of mine. I love the work you guys do and I tell every one about it. If I ever win the lotto I will definitely come over from New Zealand ❤

[@beckytotten4245]

So sad but i know she will be ok thank you xx ❤

[@patsydevers9025]

I want so bad to foster a little darlin like Anita! ❤️❤️❤️

[@rogeriabarroso2150]

❤❤❤❤❤

[@barbara6962]

GOD BLESS YOU ALL AND I LOVE YOU ♥️♥️

[@eve8486]

So heartbreaking 🙏

[@timmied8461]

This is really sad that his Mom was shot with a gun and killed! What kind of person does it take to do something this horrible!? 🤬

[@LaurieLT88]

I think over their they are considered pests. Farmers especially don't like them. Hard for us to understand.

[@erynporter9951]

Awe, little Miss Anita is an itty bitty little lady❤. Poor pumpkin, you could see how sad she was when you picked her up😢. She also wasn't quite sure if she liked the milk, LOL. She made the best face,😂! Im happy that she is at the VMF and has a second chance to have a life full of love, and a Furever home❤❤❤!!! Thank You for ALL you have done, and continue to do, you touch SO SO MANY lives!!!🙏🏻🙏🏿🙏♥️🩷♥️

[@katsimmons1065]

Never cease to make me 😁 on my face, and in my ❤️ I know babies sleep a lot, but I think some of it, besides exhaustion, that Anita was depressed at first. She looked like a Monkey Queen with blankie on her head, and scratching her head. 😂 Ricardo he's so playful, loved how he jumped across the bed🤣❣️ He's a Sweetie tho, knew Anita needed that hug, and reassurance that everything is gonna be alright baby girl❤

[@sheriwelker5991]

[@VA4LVRS]

My son drunk out of those bottles he was born at 28 wks and had to teach him how to suck a bottle. He’s 19 now is doing wonderfully

[@Bethsabee_Sheba_Newrose]

Ricardo is too busy scratching his butt to eat lol

[@pepita7053]

J'insiste,j'aimerais avoir des nouvelles de Zachs.Merci!

Who are putting down? I hope not these good people?

[@f-tech5497]

@@ShawnCollier-ew8zu All those stupid folks who believe these crappy fairytales.

[@dianas2766]

David, what speed are you driving? I'm dizzy!!

[@VervetMonkey]

its 4x the speed or would take to long

[@sdraper2011]

What is in the bottles that you feed them? Is it the same baby formula that's made for humans? I've heard that infant monkeys can't digest cow's milk very well.

[@VervetMonkey]

its soya based, only cows digest cows milk very well

[@funnykid4012]

Anita looks just like the old man down the street

[@Bethsabee_Sheba_Newrose]

Yeah, she’s already “seen some things”.

[@susanmiller6023]

7:14 is this person OK? She's got two really dark eyes?

[@beckyrogers923]

It is a genetic condition common among middle eastern and Indian and others. Sure she's fine. No time for concealer and makeup !
