Dave, I really enjoyed this video along with the very soft background music. I was concerned for Satchmo when he was placed with the Samango, but I realized he was giving just as much as he was taking. What a resilient character he is. This is due to everyone there working so hard especially during this lock down. I made sure to watch those commercials and to click on a some ads.
Poor Maddox. Sounds like he is crying, "Help. Help." I am enjoying these so much. Found the baby monkeys on the videos coming out of Taiwan, Vietnam, and Cambodia. Took me only a short time to realize how badly the monkeys were being treated by putting clothes on them, terrorizing them, doping them, and starving them. I do not watch those any more. They are only trying to make money and could care less about the monkeys. In fact it is easy to see in some instances that the monkeys have been placed in very dangerous, harmful situations just for the cameras to film. Were I not so old and beat up, in my younger days I would have loved to have come and helped at the foundation. You do so much good and care so carefully for these at risk babies. Thank you especially for having the closed captioning. Some times it is obvious that the captioners don't get it right, but most of it helps me to understand far more than I would if it were only audio. Is the larger one a male or a female? They do seem to be playing very rough, but continue to go back to each other to do it all again.
Dave I could listen to your commentary all day, everyday. Thank you for this video- I'm up late in the States, and it was a nice treat to find this posted. :)
From a monkeys point of view we must be these mercurial demigods. We are not as fast, but we are tremendously large, strong, and masters of trickery. We use items beyond their comprehension to care for them and control means to more food and faster travel than they could imagine. Kinda makes me feel like I have not been meeting my potential lol.
All your videos are great! And it's so wonderful of you all to spend your life helping them put their life in order as it should be. I wonder is there anyone, anywhere that is working on laws to protect these monkeys, to protect them from humans in every way...There should be laws against taking them for pets and there should be laws to physically protect them also.
YAY!! I am finally able to order a t-shirt to help the Foundation out in this tough time. I do wish all the shirt designs had the foundation's logo on it. How much of the t-shirt order funds actually go to the foundation? ETA- What is the best way to ensure the most of what we give goes to the Foundation?
@@VervetMonkey I cancelled the order of the shirt and instead donated the full amount to the foundation. I love the shirt, but love being able to help you even more.
There names will be changed, we ask a donation to name a baby or a monkey, who ever pays the donation gets to name them and that name will stay with them its one way we raise funds to pay for the vet checkup and micro-chip, some people who hand them in pay to keep there name, also if we did not most monkeys would be called apie - which is the afrikaans name for monkey
I don’t know what is going on but it says that the video was released for members 21 hours ago but until about 1 hour ago it wasn’t showing for me. I don’t mind watching later but it is annoying that I keep waiting and checking anxiously and cannot see when it is posted. Does anyone know what might be going on and how to fix it?
It looks like they have set up the UA-cam membership program, which is different from Patreon. If you look near the "subscribe" button, there should be a second button that says "join", which I believe costs a few dollars a month and provides perks. As far as I know, you get to see videos a day early and will have special icons by your name in the chat to show you're a supporter. Hope that helps!
Quiet Inspiration Creations hey! You guys are correct, I signed up last night after seeing Dave’s video about needing funds for food. Apparently a lot of the businesses that give a lot of leftovers are shut down and boy that has to hurt. I’m embarrassed to say that I don’t even recall the pricing of the different levels of memberships. I signed up for something small thinking if many of us were able to do just a little, that it would ALL add up. Then each month if I have a bit more, I can always do extra so this was my small , very minor contribution. These guys are the bomb and I can tell we all respect, trust and love them!! I hope ALL of my fellow monkey loving friends are all doing well and being safe. E
@@EmmaDee Emma Dee Hey Emma, I too try to do my part and am embarrassed to say that I hadn't noticed the JOIN icon until replying to Amy's message. So, thanks to her, I too have joined to do my (albeit tiny) part! If I were healthier, I would be there everyday, helping to care for those precious babies!
Hey Amy, I see that you have an icon by your name now, which wasn't there when I replied, so I have a feeling something just hadn't gone through, and you will have access next time. One good thing came from your message though, I realised that they have set up the membership for their channel and have also joined! Cheers!

Only beg her to talk louder and more clearly . I am bad to spell and find the right words in English . But I can understand everything you are saying...Take care of you ...grettings from Sweden
ive been wondering what they do with adolescent males? in the wild they would leave the troop and try to find a new troop with females they arent related to. and maybe move up the male hierarchy and gain some mating rites. having young males growing bigger every day would be a threat to the alpha male.
Still loving the vids but not liking the piano music in the background. I I want music I can add it. Its also one extra thing an editor has to do. It really destroys what is itherwise an amazing and unique experience.
7531monkey yup then people complained when he left. He did a good job but it was too much about himself and not the monkeys. Plus I don’t trust someone that displays that false smile all the time, that’s something you learn in acting school not a monkey ongoing documentary.
Satchmo is in ❤ with baby daddy....nice...
When will people learn, monkeys aren’t pets! Thanks for all your great work helping these poor animals.
We agree!
I loved watching Satchmo and Mango having so much fun, playing and jumping around, they were really enjoying each other! 😍
They are!

i love monkeys
wonderful you showed the monkeys in slow motion.
I love the sound of the vervets voice. ts so sweet
Vervets have such a unique, cute cry 🐒♥️
What a handsome boy
Thank You for another great video.
Our pleasure!
appreciate the video VMF, needed my dose of cute monkeys. You can still see the kid in Arlo, he must be quite young can just see it in his face :)

Christy Thank you, probably paypal would be the most efficient - the T-shirts I have set the profit fairly low so we make around $3 per item

Pas d'eau ?
Do any of these monkeys ever get released to the wild?
Do you suppose any of the troup that were rescued approached the new members in the enclosure and think I remember being in there and you'll be fine.
I think if it happened to an older monkey maybe, but do remember it is a traumatic event even loosing your human family
Just curious, do you change the monkey's names at all when they come in as ex pets like Arlo? Or do they always keep their original names.
There names will be changed, we ask a donation to name a baby or a monkey, who ever pays the donation gets to name them and that name will stay with them its one way we raise funds to pay for the vet checkup and micro-chip, some people who hand them in pay to keep there name, also if we did not most monkeys would be called apie - which is the afrikaans name for monkey
Mango can't tell that Satchmo is a different species?
Satchmo and mango are both the same species
I think you might of meant male, or female, they are the same sex. A dad instead of mom.

Where is Kyle?

Are you part of the Amazon Smile program?
unfortunatly not as it does not support South Africa

unfortunatly you in the minority and a lot of people enjoy it - If there is something worth lisitining to I make sure you can hear it
I wish this week's episode was a bit more uplifting 😔 Can we get an update on Gimli, please?
You will have to be patient Gimli meets moms not next week but the week after
Please more monkeys. Less talking
turn down your sound and you wont hear a word
Tonya Logan less complaining, be more thankful. You don’t pay for this do you.
Remember when the babies were whining for Kyle and his Colgate smile? The videos are 10 times better and about the monkeys for a change. 👍
7531monkey yup then people complained when he left. He did a good job but it was too much about himself and not the monkeys.
Plus I don’t trust someone that displays that false smile all the time, that’s something you learn in acting school not a monkey ongoing documentary.
I enjoy the videos more now too, but I also respect Kyle for what he did in getting this aspect going for the vmf.
