It is so sad hearing a baby monkey call out to his mommy and troop. It's wonderful all of you guys make such a positive effort to give them a nice safe home.

[@OKBoomer2k]

I got in a car accident this morning and I'm really shaken up. Watching these baby monkeys get the help they need is calming me down. This channel is amazing.

[@sherylF5610]

You ok?

[@OKBoomer2k]

@@sherylF5610 thank you for asking. Yes, I think I'm ok physically. Just needed to watch something wholesome like this for a bit.

[@wendybell6368]

This is the best site for actually seeing how rescuers treat the abandoned baby monkeys and integrate them with other babies. Everyone associated with Vetver is so kind and loving.

[@honeyowen3163]

For me there is nothing more beautiful than seeing a baby monkey get that first hug. I imagine them thinking "I'm a little monkey, this is where I belong". Thank you for giving these beautiful animals a full life and allowing us to see it.

Poor Daisy Mae was so confused and scared😢 So relieved that she finally was able to realize that Martha was safe to be with and was going to be a good mom to be with.❤❤

[@wandamanske8667]

I love this program. I’ve never seen anything like it. I wish there were more people like these that love the primates. It’s absolutely beautiful when a baby gets a mom.

[@renatezylla1421]

I am so happy for Daisy Mae that she has a mother now . Mother is such a good mother for this smart little Monkey Girl

[@loycereeves5009]

just came across these postings. I love them. I especially enjoy when the foster moms are brought in and they bond with these precious babies...thank you for taking care of these precious creatures.

[@alexwaterville8074]

Well done folks 👏 stellar job for little Daisy-Mae. Sending love to you and all the babies xx

[@janetgonzalez3931]

Awww so adorable all of them you's are so amazing team in helping those babies showing them so much care and love I love the noises they make to cute

[@patriciatimmerman2625]

Thank you Dave for more baby monkey rescues. You and the Vervet Monkey Foundation volunteers do an amazing job of comforting the newly motherless baby monkeys and helping them to survive their loss. Heartbreaking to hear the tiny baby monkeys calling for their mom.

[@judysoderlund7680]

Martha is amazing! What a wonderful mom!

[@jennifer294]

Awesome.. I'm glad Daisy-May got her a New Mommy .,That just makes me smile..And soon the others will have New Moms..You all do a AWESOME JOB..AND THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING

[@koisneurotypical]

Aw, I was really pulling for Daisy Mae! She was so traumatized initially. It's so fascinating to see the many stages they go through. She didn't know whether to cling to Martha or be afraid of her. You could see her internal conflict during the integration! You just have to trust the process, right? I appreciate how you walk us through the many complex steps and explain to us that even though they experience trauma, it all works out in the end. The Foster Mums are incredible. Wild monkeys would have smacked the living tar out of screaming babies, but Pan and Martha are just amazing. I love how Lottie was giving the Carer the "back off" look lol. You can tell she is older and has watched her Mum do the same. So incredibly sad how her Mum passed away. Lastly, it never ceases to amaze me how the orphans, as traumatized as they are, still lend a cuddle to the newbies. They will always comfort the newest member, despite their tenuous situation. Thanks so much for another incredible episode. Hope you all had a wonderful (working) Holiday!

[@timmied8461]

Thank all you guys for everything you do for these poor orphans! 💗 Your videos are really interesting and well made! 👍 Excellent portion Mark! 🐒

[@VervetMonkey]

Thank you very much!

[@hipdogdsv]

It always amazes me how loud tiny little creatures can be.

[@julieprior3126]

Another wonderful episode. I loved hearing the night-time noises when Josie was filming the bushbabies. I'm amazed at how far they can go in one jump, and in one case jumping almost backwards! Martha was amazing, wasting no time in leaping straight up onto the platform to grab the babies to quieten and hug them, even tho they were a bit alarmed! Later the comfy bond with Daist Mae was great to see after she'd worked out how to exit the feeding cage - I think she wanted Martha to go in there! Finally, you just gotta love Jethro! He's another big brother like Floki!

[@Dink_13]

Nice job Daisy-Mae! It’s all gonna be alright now

[@lynnbuonomo7611]

The cute factor is threw the roof!! The new bee Yonns is a cutie pie, it just hit me what David had said in a previous video. It really is sad to see the heart break these little guys go through. What a blessing you all are to be there to know what they need, when they need it. Bravo.Thanks again for the education 🐒

Wishing all at the VMF a happy and safe New Year! Thanks for sharing your passion with us and caring for these babies🐒

[@gigicostlow4414]

Always so awesome when a baby gets a new mom. I love what all you do for these sweet babies. Lottie was so cute with her "scary" look. Always breaks my heart when a little one like Yonds calls for it's mother. Especially when they see one of the Bandits and can't figure out why no one is coming to it's rescue. Oh, those were cheetahs not leopards. Thanks for taking the time to show us your day to day lives spent with these precious little primates.

[@VervetMonkey]

Thank you so much!

[@loisjackson3164]

Oh bless his baby heart. That little sound crying is so cute

[@pegberthold3988]

Happy new year to all of you who have gotten through a year (plus) that has been more challenging than I could imagine, I'm sure. It is captivating to see the changes in the babies from traumatized orphans to being bonded to a new mum. Seeing Daisy Mae's emotional struggle, vacillating between fear of, and acceptance of Martha is a realization of how complex and stressful the integration process can be. It's a privilege to witness that via video, so I very much appreciate your efforts to make that possible. Thank you for another fascinating "visit".

[@lisacolbert5987]

Not sure how I’d missed this one over 2 years ago , but it was a nice treat to see an old one for the first time . Jethro eating his carrot while watching the show was very sweet and funny . Great episode !

[@kathymyers-host6187]

I SO enjoyed this video! I chuckled alot; loved the "carrot juice" lips!😅...I cracked up!.... I always have trouble remembering names....but the one baby really needed Martha to discipline her, to calm her down... She just kept freaking out.... I've seen other Mom's do that....where they just "grab them" and give em a shake & say "ENOUGH!"... she hung onto EVERYONE... she seemed extremely insecure, for some reason.... Not slot of " playing "; mostly clinging.... That was a bit hard on the other babies😑

[@Zion45005]

I doubt very seriously discipline is what she needed. These poor babies are already afraid of being around so many adult monkeys after mostly being with humans for so long. They do have to have time to adjust. Because her crying annoyed you doesn't mean she needed to be shaken.

I'm sure that will never happen through an organization or anything like that but I sure as hell can go out and buy one so the hell with y'all. Get one bring it home to take care of it and love it and hold it and train it and feed it and diaper it and wash it when it needs it and make it a loving little monkey. I'd rather do it through an organization, but we know that will never happen not for me. I'll go out and get my own. Find me about to retire so I'll have plenty of time to devote to a beautiful creature.

[@VervetMonkey]

thats the spirit, steal a baby from its mother, force it to live an unnatural life with its tormentor, tide to a string and locked up in prison when you have satisfied your lust for tormenting, never again to jump through the trees free playing with its friends or family, poor mother mourning the loss of her stolen child, while you have this false smile of satisfaction for the cruel deed you have committed. sounds like a plan.
