  • A low-ranking macaque female looks on in horror as a higher-ranked female simply takes her son for herself. If he's not returned to his mother soon, to nurse, he could dehydrate.

      @@cameronmalchow1837 not typical in any macaque. This dude is out hunting monkey abuse channels so to him it's confirmation but it is very rare to see them die especially if their mother is alive. What this guy doesn't know or understand is those videos coming out of Thailand, Cambodia, and Malaysia those videos are very very extenuating circumstances. First off, these videographers who run the channel they have major skin in the game. They run this monkey scam where they are like farmers of monkeys. They have huge networks of people who raise and breed macaques. They're also some stealing from the wild too and they reintroduce the babies to other communities after hand raising them, bathing them incessantly, making them wear diapers, and making them fight for food. Then they take them all from age just born to adult getting ready to die and they make them actors in some natural setting. They abandon all these monkeys and absolute chaos ensues and luckily they are their to record it. They are also feeding these troops to the point that some of them (sweetpea) were so big they couldn't do anything but barely get around. I'm talking weighing 60 pounds when they should weigh 20 at their age... so in those circumstances also female adults live longer than normal and have more babies than normal because of the food security then they have babies and go crazy or die then there is a live infant running around. Sometimes someone too young assumes the responsibility and aren't capable of meeting the needs of a newborn. Now that I've seriously thought about it, I've never seen a kidnapping (which is technically called aunting) turn into a death if the baby has a mother....

      Because it would destroy their fake narrative. They imagine the most dramatic story given what the money's give them to put in a video. For example, the story is the baby is kidnapped, well, no it wasn't. If this video ran just a little longer, it would show the.mother gets the baby back.
      They tried this same stunt on another video claiming the alphas eat the found fruit first, then the females, but there was this pathetic, the lowest mother monkey who couldn't eat if the fruit Because of her lowly status, therefor she at bug's and grass. Bologna. She ate the fruit right after the camera cuts off

    I love reading these comments - it shows how something as simple as a monkey video can be used to invoke primal emotions in human beings. Kidnapping is a normal part of macaque life that is found in the natural environment. The mother already knows how to get her baby back - see her following the baby around, as soon as the baby gets hungry it will automatically seek out its mother for feeding. She just has to sit and wait for her baby to get hungry.

      It does happen a lot actually. And no the baby doesn't make the decision to go eat. If the baby starts hooting for it's mom too much it will get attacked physically by the kidnapper (who quite possibly could be a family member and/or male) however, sadly, quite a bit will starve to death. It's a big deal in the Macaque world.😢

      Kidnapping is actually very common among macaques. Happens when females are soo desperate to display maternal instincts that they will take a baby of lower ranked females just to feel motherly.
      Many times tho, the kidnappings go wrong and baby dies of malnutrition/starvation since kidnapper doesn't have milk to keep baby alive. Newborns can only go a few days without milk or they will die.
