Baby orphaned monkeys meet their foster moms, Cuddy and Floki are joined by Leelo

[@hikkchik]

I have so much respect for all of you, not to mention a little bit of jealousy. If I were 30 years younger, I'd be doing everything in my power to volunteer for a few months at least. It looks so rewarding.

Also how can anyone not like the last shot of those 4 little faces going for the milk, just so heart melting !!!

Yes! This sound of suckling milk is too cute

This is an absolutely wonderful episode,! It is probably my favorite of this season:) thank you!! So much!!

[@julieprior3126]

How lovely to see the amazing, patient Mrs Gold again! She's a superstar. Floki covered in red juice was funny! That group manages very well together despite their individual problems. Lovely vid. Thanks. X

Thank you for giving us such an insight and not rushing through it. I am a licensed wildlife rehabilitator in Texas and of course, we don't have monkeys, so I am enjoying this a lot!

Thank you to everyone at VMF for everything you did and do for all 22 babies. Also, for what you do for Floki and friends to help them. You all did great this baby season without a lot of help so again thanks for all you do. Hopefully things will get better soon. I enjoyed this video very much and can't wait for next week's to find out what happens with Art, Fritz, and Aurora. Floki looked so cute with that red juice all over his face and arm. He did indeed look like he had killed something!

[@tanyatigermarshall7878]

I laughed so belly sorely when she said " well we can't just chuck them into the troop" oh the crazy animated visions I had for a moment....lol well done dear I needed that laugh! I love your humor, you are a funny gal! I love this channel so much and the people and the monkey's! Positive loving vibes coming to all of you from 🇨🇦

[@harassarah9551]

Mrs. Gold face looking at the baby bundle was hilarious! 😂 Floki is thinking he’s the stud on that block now with 2 older ladies shacking up with him! He cracks me up trying to flirt with them while he tries to play. He really is by far my favorite monkey so far but a very close 2nd would be Rox. I think love them both so much because they both are little fighters and have endured soooo much in their young lives...I know they all have but these two survived and kept a super positive attitude and encouraged the others around them. Thanks for all you guys do for all these sweet babies and also for another amazing video!! ❤️

[@koisneurotypical]

This was such a unique episode- I loved the 6 monkey dynamic of the 4 babies and two Foster Mums. I'm curious to see if Aurora becomes the overly clingy/hoggy baby with Mrs. GOld, once her barriers are lowered. That seems to be a trend (or maybe I am imagining it), and I find it all so fascinating. I'm sorry if in the past my comments sound critical- they are 10000% not, and sometimes I don't realize how MUCH time and effort and research the Foundation puts into understanding the psychology and dynamics of these monkeys. You always do what is in their best interest, and my comments never mean to criticize- although I am very curious as to how you come up with placement decisions! Thanks again for including us in your journey in giving these monkeys their best life.

Surprising to see a frog there, as dry as the area generally is. Where do they linger most of the time until the drenching rains come? Had no idea you would be coming on this afternoon - really disappointing to miss you live.

At around 43:12 there are three babies huddled on the ground. Which babies are together, please? Also one baby starts the mom call, but again which baby is calling so anxiously, please? Thank everyone of you for all that you do. There is so much evil in the world, and it is so nice to see positive things being done.

[@lb3426]

Another episode with a few laughs... Flokster and his love for his juice! Great to see Pascall and Toni and how they settled in so nicely. Can’t wait to see next week with more on how the Goliath babies are doing.... we are in a bit of suspense for the week with not knowing which mommies they will be with!

It was just to much with the ear sucking in the cage, I was worried when it was morning and he was still sucking on his buddies ear ! 😂 just so so funny 🤣, will he do that with his foster mom at all or to his buddy when hanging out ? Just wondering ? BTW, I have learned so much watching this channel and that noise (chattering) and the bundle of 3 and mom’s reaction was so so nice 👍🏼 ! I love listening to the commentary also !!

[@hadesjrtherabbit8488]

So adorable when the little one sucks the other bibies ear!! These monkeys seem to be much more civilized and don't beat on the babies as much as those monkeys in Thailand.

[@tabbycat6458]

I wish people could see how stressed out those babies are and understand why its so important not to have them for pets. They always abandon them when they become older. And I recently found out about a monkey hate community. What the hell is that. I'll never understand I guess.

I noticed you said Okoya likes the Royal Canin bottle "teat"/nipple. If you email a request to Royal Canin I'm sure they would be happy to send you some more bottles for the monkeys! They participate in numerous "Sample" programs in the US & Canada. I participate in a Sample for Review panel from a company called @SampleSource (#trybeforeyoubuy ) and I've gotten numerous Royal Canin samples. I really believe if you reach out they will help. If you can give me your mailing address, and a contact email, I'd be happy to post a request for the Foundation!😊

I actually have a source for the Royal Canin Pet Nursers but which nipple do you have? They have them for puppies, kittens, small animals (like rabbits), cleft palette nursers and a few other. If that is the nipple that came with the bottle the suppliers says it should be noted on the rim of the nipple which one it is. I told the supplier it was being used for vervet monkeys and he said he has never known them to carry one strictly for monkeys so suspects it might be from the small animal set. If you cannot find a label for which you need I could ship one of each and you could then let us know which one appears to be the same. They are a animal nurser more prevalently used in the UK as the Ag nursers are the mostly used in facilities in the US but we found a supplier that does stock them as we prefer the cleft palette nursers they make over tube feeding when possible.

what kind of monkeys are these, ive seen so many different kinds from the tiniest to the biggest very cute and they seem so tame. Ive never had a pet monkey but my daughters when they were small wanted me to get one but i said no, to much distruction they could create, where are you located? Thank you for sharing these videos i enjoy them as im and old man crippled and stuck at home in Minnesota USA

[@theopinionisthighqualityopinio]

These are vervet monkeys, also known as either blue monkeys or green monkeys. They live in Southern Africa and parts of the Caribbean. The Vervet Monkey Foundation is located in Tzaneen, South Africa. They've been rescuing vervet and samango monkeys for thirty years and are very caring and wonderful people. The orphans are paired with monkey foster moms and then released into one of the many troops on Foundation land. I'm merely a member of the channel who saw your two month old comment and wanted to respond. Watching these videos gave me a lot of comfort after my husband died. I hope you're still watching! The videos can be very relaxing, especially for those of us who are older and have a hard time getting around. I wish you the best and hope I've been able to help with a small bit of information! 🙂

As an amphibian rescue supporter I object to allowing them to be stressed, hurt, or killed as well. There are plenty of baby monkey torturer's as well, and I think all should have human respect and protection. In Indonesia's Orangutan rescue, and school, they teach the babies to fear snakes with rubber snakes. You might want to try that as well!
