Dave I just want to say you are doing a very good job narrating for the VMF

[@lyric8006]

Dave & all the volunteers are Saints. Thank you for all your dedication to these innocents 🙏

[@beckya1823]

Wonderful episode!! I could watch their stories for hours, the work you all do is amazing! Thank you for keeping the series alive!!

[@YaYa-lz1zt]

Becky A, me too! I cannot believe this is a 20:22 minute episode. It felt like 10 min max.

[@timmied8461]

Thank you ALL for doing such a great job with these rehab. monkeys, there are not enough kind words to describe you all!! Also, you do a wonderful job with your description of these videos!

[@stephaniekondos7965]

Thanks Dave for your wonderful commentary.

[@sandrarawn2147]

I just love these little 💓 babies so much! My God to all you volunteers, Dave and everyone there, God bless all of you for all your hard work, commitment, kindness and love that you all put into helping these babies so much! I absolutely love watching the videos and following along to when the babies meet their moms and then get released into their troops! Well done everyone!

[@YaYa-lz1zt]

Dave, this is such a good video. Thank you for providing an environment where orphaned babies are giving a second chance. It’s really easy to fall in love with the babies and when one immediately takes to a mom it’s a moment of bliss. These babies are traumatized, usually having seen their mother killed. Thank you for all you and your employees and volunteers do to save these precious little creatures...and for the good feels you give your viewers.

[@lindafromcalifornia1155]

Wow Dave, this was a great episode. I loved watching Satchmo and Terk running around, jumping and wrestling. They are such characters and had so much fun. Rox is a real trooper with everything he has gone through. Meka will hopefully make that final commitment to the wild. I had no idea you had to choose lower level monkeys as part of the integration. It makes total sense. Epic work by all and thanks for continuing with this Dave.

[@matthewbarger4592]

nice video. some festive moments and some trauma, poor little guy. good commentary, i do enjoy these videos.

[@sarah.harasboucher5202]

Thank you for another sweet video! I appreciate that you continue to update us on what’s going on after Kyle left 😢.

[@julieprior3126]

Hear hear! They are so busy and short staffed too, yet time is found to film for us. Thankyou so much.

[@marylouruss1087]

Thank you so much for videos.love warching all the babies

[@lisadibbern4268]

Oh how very sweet! Love the hug she gave baby!

[@whitegirl1442]

I felt so sad when baby Rox came with two broken legs and his mother and sister were killed from a motor vehicle accident. Hopefully he's okay!

[@rawfedk9]

I love your commentaries these days. Thank you for sharing all your hard work.

[@l.johnperry4072]

They're 2 adorable little monkeys. Thats what they're supposed to do.....PLAY & EAT!!

[@breandajenkins2221]

Such a great video! I love all your videos. Please keep doing a great job. The happy little monkeys are so much fun to see!!

[@danaleigh4576]

Thank you Dave!! Awesome video!! You all do a wonderful job with these babies!!

[@louisebookman231]

Hello they look skinny do they eat much and they beautiful Monkeys may God continue to be with them and you all two

[@loristone8860]

Louise Bookman They aren’t skinny, this is their natural body type. I believe they are fed a properly balanced selection of foods that correlates to what they would encounter in the wild. For example, they are given a selection of natural grasses in addition to local fruits and vegetables. In previous seasons they showed the food preparation areas and talked about their diet.

[@hvac6337]

Little Terk is so cute .

[@renatezylla1421]

I can only admire how they distinguish all the many monkeys by name - and are always focused on the welfare of each individual!

[@donnachappell3674]

Love to see them miss one another

[@sonjam314]

At 6:36 the other female has herself stretched so close hoping baby will latch on the her lol. They both want him!!!! It’s so awesome to see how they are so willing to adopt the orphans!!! I wish more species were like this!!!!

[@reedecker9416]

I can never get enough of these. So much great work! Thank you! 💖

[@deborahkimball-billups6405]

[@wonniek.3536]

This was so cute, thank you for the updates. ♥️♥️♥️ So good to see them. Thank you for all of your hard work. It’s amazing that I can watch you guys work all the way from this side of the world. These videos really help me appreciate how intricate the world of different animals are. Your explanations are very helpful as well. Their behavior and social world are so interesting.

[@donnachappell3674]

Rox, such a brave little guy

[@nawright9215]

So adorable 😍

[@simplydanlrene4276]

Great job on this one. I really enjoyed it.

[@barbarageorge7848]

Hee hee 🤣 so fun in Loveland! This foster mom program is so heartwarming! Their know how, giving the youngster time is amazing!!! Bringing in the older one, the one that was a pet... do you know how it’s determined where their place in a hierarchy will be?

[@julieprior3126]

That's a very interesting question.

[@sherylynhilyard3402]

How adorable

[@lisadibbern4268]

They are so cute!

[@evawinemiller7087]

I love ❤️ too see how much fun they are having. People don’t care about them when they have them as a pet some of those people are so evil to those babies

[@donnachappell3674]

Such a sweet baby I

[@karinam4488]

👋🏼 Hi, new subscriber here! Love ur videos and what u do for the wild nature! Question: it’s my understanding that you have fully functioning, normal troops; how do foster moms don’t get babies of their own? Thank you for answering the question and everything you do!

[@VervetMonkey]

we vasectomise the males, now and again however one manages to have a baby

[@karinam4488]

Vervet Monkey Foundation thank u for the swift reply; I think it’s extremely smart that u do that

[@rustyanneyakel]

ROTFLMBO... those eyebrows , tho...

[@l.johnperry4072]

1 word. "Resilient "

[@chriswinslow5260]

I didn't understand the reason for trying the lower level monkey first. Can someone please exlplain? Thanks.

[@amandaellison4892]

❤️🐒❤️🐒❤️

[@renatezylla1421]

Is it right, that the foster mothers care of the babies well, give them love but NO milk...?

[@VervetMonkey]

correct - we have to teach them to find milk from a special feeding cage

[@lisadibbern4268]

Do you release them back to the wild?

[@VervetMonkey]

Hi Lisa - everything is done in away that they can be released back to the wild as a safe oppertunity arises, they get intergrated into large soft release natural enclosures with beauiful trees, grass and bugs

[@donnachappell3674]

Miss supposed to be miss spell check???kiss

[@vickiaverett2744]

Dave, what can people do about the videos that are being made probably in Vietnam or Cambodia…..the videographers are torturing and taunting the mom monkeys to get violent toward their babies. Is there anything that can be done?

[@VervetMonkey]

Unfortunately its a picture of the society we live in and as long as there is a demand it wont stop, the best way is for people to stop waching

[@vickiaverett2744]

@@VervetMonkey Thanks for your reply. I really appreciate what everyone does for the Vervet Foundation. It’s so heartwarming and definitely creates feelings of peace. I feel peace watching the little guys get foster moms because those monkeys feel peace. It’s one of the greatest things to watch that transition from fright and sadness to contentment with the workers and then complete peace when they get a mom! (I’m 61 and I come from a very difficult background…..when your episodes end I always say….I Want A Mom! A Loving Mom!). I receive a bit of healing too!

[@simplydanlrene4276]

I have got to ask you all something. I was watching Simba the Lion where he was being taken back to Africa and in it they were uniting him with a female. They showed the workers and I did a double take. Tell me isn't this one on the left Tori? She is older than I thought cause this is 2014 but cool to have done Simba. Go to 2:24 on this video and tell me. kzbin.info/www/bejne/p3mzZ4ygps6caJY

[@VervetMonkey]

Yes thats her at Lilongwe, the place she returned to

[@simplydanlrene4276]

@@VervetMonkey Thanks for answering. I thought I was losing my mind LOL. I was watching Simba being returned to Africa and then when the helpers showed up I thought no no can't be. Glad we have such good helpers left here. Love the videos you are doing.
