[@rodneystephens8859]

Well hello there my friend I hate that you suffer with depression I know I do not know you or anyting about you however I support for about 20 years with depression and I know what you're going through although there is a lot of different types of depression but depression is depression and you go through hell with it and I truly hope you learn to cope with it and get it out of your life, I'm curious where do you live at do you live in the United States or where, I live in the United States in Alabama

TAMBÉM TÔ EM TRATAMENTO DE "DEPRESSÃO" SOU COMO VOCÊ. ATUALMENTE NUMA FASE QUE SÓ ME INTERESSA VER ESSES BEBÊS, VEJO ELES O TEMPO INTEIRO, E SÓ DURMO ASSISTINDO ELES TODOS OS DIAS. ELES ME FAZEM BEM E AMO VER QUANDO PESSOAS TRATAM ELES COM AMOR, E SOFRO COM QUEM ZOMBA E MALTRATA ELES. TORÇO PARA QUE DEUS NOS ABENÇOE! E ESSE LINDOS, QUE NOS ENCHEM DE ALEGRIA!🙏🐒👏❤️❤️❤️

Taro is a very brave boy, doing this without another babyfriend next to him. So happy for this little one and his new mommy Yllena! 💙❤️🤗👏🏻

Thank You for All You all Do!! wished you all were in North Florida. Lake City Fla.. we used to go to Adventures in Valdosta Ga.. we loved seeing their Monkeys and other Animals.. we are about 60 miles from Wild Adventures!

[@marthamitchell2862]

Dave, you are the kindest, most gentle man I have ever come across. There is a special place in heaven for you. I am your biggest fan.

[@julieprior3126]

Martha, you have some competition! 😅 I agree with you. Dave's knowledge of, and sensitivity to the babies' facial expressions is extraordinary and his commentaries are always so interesting and sincere.

[@KaplanGOLI]

What I love about your presence during the socialization of the babies is how you do not get in their way, but provide an important support!!!

[@HAPPYBEADER9591]

So cute I've watched so many videos this morning so have to watch this cutie. I love how kind and the love Dave you are a hero.

How sweet! Taro found a mommy. ❤️❤️

[@VervetMonkey]

I know!!

[@debbieharrison8424]

So very special! Loved seeing little taro snuggled against the foster moms chest and her arm holding and protecting the little one. Just absolutely precious. Then seeing them cuddled up and napping. Really makes me feel better about people. Gives me some hope seeing that there’s still people in this world that actually has love in their hearts and give that love so freely. Thank you for helping these tiny little babies find love.

[@wandamanske8667]

I’m in America and your love for the monkey moms are amazing

[@kahliljaber3880]

I thank you, David for all the information and awareness you have been providing and continue to provide us with as monkeys are in a lot of ways like us, and he deserve to be treated with respect and compassion. Good job.

[@VervetMonkey]

Much appreciated

[@marymarlow3646]

So nice to see Karla in there interested in becoming a foster mum. One of my favourite memories is of the hilarious first meeting between Dobby and Karla. I have a framed picture of them sitting near the fence of Disneyland, Karla with her arm around Dobby. Such a perfect photo as Karla was always the leader in that relationship. She would make a great foster mum for someone, maybe next year. Taro has found the perfect one for him though. Lovely to see!

[@williamduke4544]

You people show how baby monkeys act very cool video I really enjoy watching thank you 😊

[@renatezylla1421]

This video is so touching, the many little monkey babys are so cute and so in need of protection. Dave's commentary gives each scene a profound statement

You're right! Make sure you share this video and get your friends, family, and co-workers to subscribe :)

I suffer from depression, anxiety and night panic attacks. I'm also disabled and have 4 autoimmune illnesses. Watching these videos calms me down. So you aren't only helping vervet monkeys you are helping a human too. Thank you.

[@rodneystephens8859]

I think that I seen that your name was Susan I'm not sure I'm sorry if I'm wrong but anyway I seen someone else comment that they were going through depression and I wanted to let you know it's like I did them I went through depression for around twenty years and I know it's hell and I'm just wishing that you can get of the depression out of your life I know that. Don't know you're anything about you but I'm just wishing you all the best

Dave I truly hope that you read this comment, because I just wanted to tell you I think you are truly an amazing human being, because all of the years that you've been doing this and still to this date you look at these baby monkeys and can see the hurt and the Wonder in their eyes like you were explaining early in the video I think that is amazing, also I think you in the entire staff are amazing human beings and you're truly God sent to do the work you all do may God bless each and everyone of you

Thank you

[@rodneystephens8859]

@VervetMonkey you are so Welcome with much love from the United States of America

[@honeyowen3163]

I'm laughing watching little Taro check out the potential moms. He looks at one and thinks "hmm, maybe" goes to the next "I'll think about it" and continues. He definitely appears to be thinking "whoever I pick is surely going to be lucky to have me so they better appreciate me and realize how special I am".

[@katyalupochev9589]

Do you guys ever forget, and lip smack at people or your pets when you go home? I spoke to someone who volunteered with orphaned macaques once. She said after spending 4 months at the wildlife rehab, she visited home and started rapidly lip smacking to her baby niece before she remembered “wait, that’s just a monkey thing”.

[@josiehumble5907]

Yes absolutely ppl call the dogs here and start lip smacking by mistake lol

[@truthseeker8571]

The desire to become a foster mum to young orphan, does this happen in the wild?

[@theopinionisthighqualityopinio]

No, it doesn't. I'm not the best person to explain why though, so I hope someone else will. 🙂

[@VervetMonkey]

in nature one can never say never, but I don't think there is a desire, the potential mom would not be lactating and so the baby would die.

[@susanmiller6023]

These are the type of videos I love. Watching the journey from coming into the foundation to finding a new family. Would you ever do a Yebulon one? I'd like to know more about why he was on a nebuliser

[@VervetMonkey]

WE will look into it no promises, he had pneumonia

[@alcourtines4707]

Must they be matched by tail length?

[@alcourtines4707]

What if they pee on the bed?

[@VervetMonkey]

we change it

[@HamabaJuJu]

why the floor (bottom) of the cage has no wood or plastic for the monkey to relax its foot?

[@thomasfreysen9784]

The video clip carries the message over. . . baby monkeys in need and your support is crucial. Photography: not professional yet. Get all staff members to look neat and tidy, trim and slim in case they appear in the video. Prepare the scenes. Remove litter before hand, tidy the rooms and remove clutter from offices. Use a tripod and eliminate camera shake. Progress from cell phone cameras to at least one proper camera. Use fill in lighting. . . the faces of the monkeys are dark, one can't see their eyes or expressions. Also light up the human faces a bit. Don't film through the fencing, and avoid sticks and branches to obscure the monkey being photographed. And good luck. . . . remember: practice make perfect.
