    How can you not root for a baby with a name like Butter Bean :D They all go through so many changes in their young lives. It must be difficult and confusing trying to adjust, but I'm so glad most of the little ones do just fine. And, we come to this channel to check out the babies, but it touches my heart too how the Foster Mom's needs are being met too in taking the young ones under their wings. (Haha, I am fully aware that it is "my" needs being met by watching these videos ;) Thanks, bunches!

      Hannah Smith You’re right! He’s an incredible little monkey. What’s funny is that anyone can name the monkeys as long as they are on the list and they donate to name. So we didn’t name stick, but the irony is that Stick was attacked by a dog and the person who named him named him after her friends dog who’s name was stick, cause he liked chasing sticks so much. Lol a strange full circle situation.

    Why do you have to keep the age groups separated? Than gradually move them up as they age? Why can't you just mix them up straight away?

    • @VervetMonkey
      @VervetMonkey  6 років тому

      Stephanie Woods I’m not exactly sure what you mean. Could u elaborate? We don’t keep different age groups separated, so maybe you’re referring to something else that is making you think of different age groups?

    • @stephaniewoods8132
      @stephaniewoods8132 6 років тому +1

      What I mean is the babies are all together with staff than as they grow that move up to other enclosures. Maybe I'm misunderstanding. Do you move the babies into the general population after a short while ?

    • @VervetMonkey
      @VervetMonkey  6 років тому +2

      Stephanie Woods so it’s not necessarily based on age. There are many factors involved. Merlin for example was older than many of the babies that moved on before him, but he was in such poor health that he needed to stay behind before he could move to meet moms. The main criteria for the orphans to meet the moms is that they can drink from the bottle inside the feeding cage on their own. Once they can do that, at any age, they can then be introduced to the mothers. But it is only at three months old that they can be released with the moms into the troop. So what you’re seeing is a variety of ages mixed together, like Norah and Shemesh were easily a month apart in age, but it made sense to move them together. Does that help to clarify?

    • @stephaniewoods8132

    • @thereseember2800

      May I ask...”Is it dangerous for them to be released before 3 months of age?” Is that the age that they’re fully weaned? Or are they in danger of harm by other monkeys if they’re released earlier than 3 months?

      @VervetMonkey  6 років тому +6

      Ophelia S almost all of the monkeys here are rescues. We are a non breeding facility. But, not all rescues were orphans. Yes some of the foster moms were orphans, but many also came in at older ages due to injuries or being ex pets, etc.

    • @ophelias4172
      @ophelias4172 6 років тому +2

      Thanks for clearing that up. I kind of figured it would be weird if it was some random troop from outside the rescue. The foster moms are pretty cool with being in the enclosures. Love watching this channel. and the babies. They look so cuddly. Especially when they sleep.

      @@VervetMonkey so then the only milk they get is from the cage that is set up with the bottles. So when they are put out with the Troop and their Foster moms they are able to eat on their own and forge for food. Do they get to come back into any of the enclosures?

      Celia White theoretically the only milk they get is from the feeding cage once they are in the troop. But I’m beginning to believe it’s possible that some of the foster mothers lactate once they form a bond with the babies. But this is purely a theory and I have no scientific evidence to back it up yet. Yes, they can forage and get to their own food, this is why we wait till they are three months old to let them out into the troop, I explained it in more detail a couple of episodes back. You should check out the Q&A episode it answers a lot of questions in detail. The only reason we bring them back into an enclosure is if they are having an issue.

      Hi Sarah, what is it that you do for a living and what is your experience working with wild animals especially primates. I'd love to have a logical and calm conversation to explain to you why this is necessary and important and actually not cruel at all. I think I can help you to understand if you'd just give me a chance and let go of any of your pre conceived notions.

      @Valdis4418 of course I called them cold blooded, that's what they are. They're also not fit to be around animals, and their responses proved it just as much as their actions do, which are cold blooded, and abusive. They are insulting because they don't know how to be anything else. There was no restraint in their ignorance. Give yourself a break so that you can get educated, just like they need to be.

      After the babies bond with foster mothers, they're released with their new parents who then introduce them to their respective troops. And, since the foster mothers are not their actual mothers, they don't produce milk, hence the necessity of the feeding cages, those cold-blooded things with the bottles sticking out for the babies to drink from.
      "Why a cage?" a mature, less presumptuous person might ask. Well, watch a couple of "baby monkey" videos and you might notice... monkeys are assholes. They really are. A mother will eat fifteen bananas in front of her offspring and not share so much as a single lick of one peel. Older siblings will try ripping a newborn off their mother's nipple simply because they're jealous. I've even seen a mother and daughter actually pry open a baby monkey'smouth to extract and eat the food it was storing in it's cheek pouches. And if a baby, knocking on death's door from starvation, were to be given a life-preserving piece of fruit from a concerned human being, you can rest assured an older, stronger monkey will come along and snatch it right out of the baby's hands, and eat it right in front of it's face without an ounce of concern because, as much as I like them, monkeys really are some greedy ass creatures. So... those cold-blooded cages are quite necessary.
      "How's the cage prevent the older monkeys from stealing the milk?" an inquisitive, less presumptuous person might ask. Well, the holes are only big enough for the babies to get through. Genius, right? You've got babies heading off to milk bars whenever they are hungry, not having to worry about starving to death. Genius, no? Probably not, right? You'd prefer "Susie" come out and handfeed them five bottles a day while stroking their heads and making lip-smacking sounds, but that's about as rational as your comment.
      They are, in fact, monkeys and not humans. They live outdoors. They sleep in trees. They eat off the ground. They don't wipe after dropping dueces, and they sniff ass on the regular. So, there's really nothing cold-blooded about a few bottles sticking out of a few cages so that some baby monkeys can have themselves a drink of milk.
      And, I think you need therapy or religion or maybe a return to school because something is off about you, if you don't take care of your issues before it's too late, I forsee a future in which you're living outdoors, eating off the ground and failing to wipe after you poo. A lot of mentally ill people end up homeless, you deserve better than that Sarah.
