Orphan baby monkey and their new foster monkey moms

We watch the drama as the baby orphan monkeys are accepted and loved by their new foster mom as they get ready for their next big adventure.
The Vervet Forest is a wildlife documentary focused on the lives of the monkeys at the Vervet Monkey Foundation in South Africa . We join the orphaned and injured vervet monkeys in their adventure and struggles as they battle their way through the foster monkey mom program to become part of a monkey troop again. This channel is for those monkey lovers who enjoy monkeys living their lives as monkeys should.

I am very happy to see Mrs. Gold again - what an amazing foster mom!

[@LaurieLT88]

She's a pro for sure.

[@user-hm6bn6kw6k]

Me, too!

[@kimleblanc7198]

Mrs Gold is certainly worth her weight in gold!!! She's such an amazing person to foster baby after baby every baby season and get them integrated into the troop. What a wonderful thing you guys do at the VMF and get to be a part of!!!

[@SweetUniverse]

Mrs. Gold knows where the fleas are, too! 😅😅❤❤❤

[@michaellynch9553]

Always incredible content, volunteers are a very special and important part of this whole wonderful group of animal crusaders. 👍🙏

[@VervetMonkey]

Couldn't agree more!

[@jillhartman7735]

I ABSOLUTELY ADORE THIS CHANNEL!! THANK YOU FOR ALL UR LOVE , DEDICATION AND HARD WORK THAT ALL OF YOU DO FOR THESE INCREDIBLE MONKEYS!! GOD BLESS FROM SOUTHEAST TEXAS USA!!!

[@ak_2117]

I predict Ellie and Nugget first out ❤❤❤😂😂😂 I just love you guys/gals and am so blessed to be a small part of your operations!!!!!🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@judysoderlund7680]

Mrs. Gold is a superstar mama! I love her style. I think Rowan will be very happy! 😊❤

[@julieprior3126]

Lovely to see the superstar Mrs Gold again. She's truly amazing and has clearly taught Ellie very well. Thanks for a great video. How I love Thursdays! ❤

[@NDbred]

Victoria, cleaning the bottles, has a beautiful smile. Thanks for helping!

[@susanmiller6023]

The babies are very lucky who gets Mrs Gold

[@lisaadkins5220]

Thank you love this wonderful people

[@jenniferkelley3777]

I feel like bluebells original mama was high ranking in her troop. She's never had to really learn much fear of other monkeys. Nice she's not overly fearful. Mrs. Gold is such a wonderful mama for these babies. She really is a God send.

[@stephanieb7311]

I love to see the mommas and babies interact. Thankyou VMF.

[@katsimmons1065]

🎉Congratulations Miz. Ellie on your first baby, Nugget ❣️. You young Lady was trained by the best, Mrs. Gold✨ I do hope Mrs. Gold takes Rowan, he needs a good momma, and I do favor him cause my grandsons name sake😊. I do hope two more mommas show up for Wandra, and Blue Bell....I think two babies each is a bit overwhelming 😵‍💫 even though they do get much help from the rest of the troop. I just like to see each baby get their very own momma🥰 I Love your Foundation, and wish I was rich enough to give. Am thankful that there is youngsters who step up and volunteer. It's a Miracle how this works, and all come together, they are my favorite Monkeys, and now I have been watching you all for two years. Always look forward to the short clips, Thursdays, and Sundays. Enjoy listening to Dave narrate what is going on. I'll👍Like button, and 🗣️comment on, if it helps your Foundation. It's all I can give besides prayer for you all, God Bless your endeavor ❣️ ✨💘💘💘✨

[@LaurieLT88]

They said Mrs Gold can be strict. Do you think Rowan needs that? I was wondering.

[@user-ho6db7pv3d]

Well I don't know about all that strick stuff, but what I've seen of her she's an excellent monkey momma to all babies, she's had one to three babies at a time.

[@julesy2464]

Beautiful ❤️. I found this channel through the Dodo -- any chance of an update on Mrs. Gold's previous Foster baby, Jerry? Did she make it through the virus? Ive been pretty much smitten with vervets after seeing her suck on her little fingers 🥺🥰😆

[@dorothydeese759]

Nice to see everything go so well with the foster moms and babies. Thank you for the video this week. So happy to see Mrs Gold comfort the little ones.

[@cherylb2008]

Mês Gold is such a sweet soul I love her name

[@raquelmatos6387]

Mrs Gold couldn’t have a better name because she’s really amazing…how many babies did she already foster?how old is she?she have a hudge heart and lot of love to share ❤

Cliffhanger!!😁I like the sporting predictions! Lucky babies to start out with Mrs. Gold and Ellie. 💕

[@brendajohnson2300]

This video Is fantastic thank u precious group for all ypu do❤❤❤❤

[@VervetMonkey]

I'm glad you like it

[@jennifermiller8226]

You left us hanging, lol😊

[@heatherwhatever7714]

This is an extra cute one. ❤️

[@hikkchik]

Videos of "Return to Forest" from the Ankor Watt temple sometimes pop up on my feed, and I have watched more than a few, and noticed a difference. The baby macaques never scream and run from the adult monkeys. They'll often run TO them and try to cling, despite being raised with humans. Most baby vervets run from the adults for a while. I wonder what the difference between them is.

[@user-hm6bn6kw6k]

Accck! You're leaving us here? But, of course, this is the classic cliffhanger strategy. See you next week.

[@janinehiggins1507]

You do a great progessional job folks 😅

[@yvonneevie9301]

Does the VF have an Amazon wish list by any chance, and if so could you post the link please? Thanks

[@mofolk8896]

That would be helpful. I recently used South African company Takealot to order and send some water drinking bottles, which were delivered no problem. I just had to reassure my credit card company that it was legit!😊

[@yvonneevie9301]

@@mofolk8896 I was going to send them some PetAg feeding bottles and teats like what she was asking for in the video, I'm in the UK so it would be helpful if they did have a shopping wish list for us to use

[@jimbowers5402]

Mrs. Gold is the Mum of the Decade.

[@anitajohnson8255]

How is Anita doing??

[@saraanderson6615]

If I was a orphan monkey I would want Mrs. Gold for my mom 🙂

[@sneaker5732]

How do you find these moms?

[@pc3235]

how is the foster mom born in the troop? i thought males were all fixed here and therefore no pregnancies and births. thank you for clarifying.

[@user-hm6bn6kw6k]

And Mark: how much money do you have on your predictions being correct? --from the fan formerly known as Carolyn

[@LLStacheLarry]

Question when the mother and the baby go out into the trees. Do they come back to eat or just eat what is out there in the trees?

[@angelastancilclubb3474]

How do you control snakes and predators

[@VervetMonkey]

carefully

[@user-oy1ws3cr4d]

❤🌹🌞

[@maxine3587]

Could i ask, please, if Mrs. Golds many foster children stay close to her as they mature and start doing their own thing? Do they visit her?

[@VervetMonkey]

Yes, one of her foster children is helping as a foster mom

[@maxine3587]

Thank you. Wonderful video, as always. ​@@VervetMonkey

[@michaelwoo4279]

Is there a hormone you could give the foster mom to have her start lactating? I have a friend who couldn’t conceive and used a surrogate. She took hormones once the baby was born so she could breathe feed. It was actually amazing!

[@maxine3587]

I don't think messing around with females hormones is a good idea, unless absolutely essential, and the babies can still get milk from the feeding stations. They do suckle their foster mums sometimes, so even with no milk, they still get the essential closeness. 🙂

[@gigicostlow4414]

I believe they are all on birth control so it probably wouldn't be a good idea. The babies are fine without mom's milk and some do suckle which makes them feel relaxed and close to the foster mom even if they aren't getting milk.

[@michaelwoo4279]

@@gigicostlow4414 actually I saw an episode where every male had a vasectomy at 2 years old. Not sure if anything is done to females. But every now and then a baby is born naturally on the reserve. Not sure if it’s only in the Bandits troupe (troop?).

[@nancymiller2814]

There are 4 babies but just Mrs. Gold and Ellie. Won't 2 of the babies get less attention and less grooming then the ones the moms are spending more time with?

[@katsimmons1065]

Mrs. Gold has took on three babies before, yes, THREE😵‍💫😂 But they get plenty of help from the whole troop. One was even taken from a momma after being released back in the troop,...guess the kidnapper thought she would be a better momma.😂 I would like to see them have their own individual mommas, but in nature it don't always work out that way.

[@serratedanderson7148]

The other two will most likely find their momma once they're released into the semi wild enclosure. Whilst in the introduction cage, the monkey mom is basically helping the babies be comfortable with mommy monkeys while in the intro cage. There'll be lots of other mom options in the troop. But yeah 4 is definitely a lot lol.
