What a generous , creative and entirely loving thing you do - so thoughtfully choosing the items then ‘gift-wrapping’ them to further enrich their lives ,,, the edible treasures. You truly think of everything! And all that you do for them is done with the same level of detail and care one would do for a human child they loved.
I hope you guys have a lot of Gimli footage because his story deserves a movie of its own. It is amazing that the same feisty little monkey jumping on the back of the big monkeys is the same that arrived afraid of life. Thanks to all of you for the work and care.
It is like little sad Gimli was replaced by a wild, energetic larger than life baby monkey. All the fosterings and integrations are miraculous in their own way but this particular story is truly heart warming. Many thanks for the amazing patience and love that everyone at the VMF demonstrates on a daily basis. Your manifestation of love makes the world a better place.
There is something about Gimli which has greatly touched my ❤! I love him and thank you sooo much for all you've done for him! Thanks for all you've done for all the monkeys especially at this trying time!
Yay for Gimili! I am so happy for him! I was starting to fear he would never be able to accept love from a foster mom. Watching him grab hold and then be carried off made me so happy!
It's really nice seeing Gimli so excited about getting some hugs, he can hardly contain himself from bouncing all over Nevil when he snuck in to see Gimli. 😄 Great job to you all, for the wonderful work that you always put into these animals that need help! 💗 PLEASE, EVERYONE, HELP THE VMF WITH A DONATION IN THEIR "TIME OF NEED"! THEY SURE NEED IT! IF YOU GIVE NOW, PLEASE GIVE A LITTLE MORE! I DO! 🙏
I’ve always felt that Gimli’s real mama was the alpha, and he had received a lot of love and attention from his troop, and had formed a very strong bond with them. The way he immediately blossomed as soon as he found a mama and a family and that the alpha took him really makes me sure of that.
Amazing and wonderful to see Gimli slowly transformed from a sad little thing sitting with his head between his legs to a confident happy little monkey being loved and out there in the troop living a normal monkey life.

So true! And wee Gimmers has won the lottery in terms of having top head-honcho momma!
I’m so happy he has an alpha female mom, and that she isn’t one those who can be a bit of b*tch even to her kids. There are some alpha female monkeys who can just as aggressive as males and it’s kind scary to see that all primates have the emotions and intelligence to be petty, not just humans.
What a fantastic episode! To watch Gimli just love being a monkey again... to the monks loving their enrichment! When I return that is definitely on my list of ways I would like to contribute as a volunteer! It is such a pleasure to watch them. Josie and Dave, you both do such a great job of narrating and awesome to see some appearances from Mark, Tracey and the rest of the gang!
That was so cute...when their breakfast or lunch was dropped off..when Im not sure the Monkeys name but when she picked up the bowl of food and carried it to the middle of their room or cage just melted my heart...it was just precious!
You guys that take care of these little monkeys do such an awesome job and that includes all the great people that fix the food for the monkeys. Awesome job guys. ❤️🐒❤️🐒❤️
I think Gabe and Gimli are going to be very close and have an awesome friendship! The way they instantly started playing just truly warmed my heart and brought me to tears! I'm just to emotional at times but especially when I watch baby monkeys play. And for it to be Gimli... oh my gosh it's so wonderful to watch! Bless each and EVERY ONE of the foundations special loving folks that take care of our unfortunate monkeys! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU can never be said enough! Love to you all and the monkeys you care for!
Awww he is so full of life now...Im actually crying...just knowing how far he has come! Thank you too every single person who was apart of his transformation! Thank you thank you!!! xoxoxo
To see how far he's come, from a sad, traumatized little boy only wanting a little love and some hugs to being the recipient of a plethora of mamas, all loving him is such a thing of beauty. God bless all of you, you're special people indeed! 💗
Saw this video and laugh! Growing up my brother and I climbed pine trees to the top and swinging on the branches. My name is Marie and brother is Colin. Gee, we were monkey’s in a tree!
There are still videos on youtube of people getting baby monkeys for pets - they just do not understand and pet shops have NO BUSINESS selling baby monkeys. It's horrid!
I am so excited to get my Gimli coffee cup ! I wish I could afford to do more but have not worked for over 3 months due to covid. Once I can, I would love to send the foundation a donation. I know you need it now so I always put the first season on and let it play all night so the ads play all the way through. I believe you said you get money for us watching the ads ? Thank you for caring for these sweet animals !
Absolutely amazing to watch Gimli, after all the withdrawn and depressed behaviors we have seen for months, now begin to play and to beg others to play with him. Watching his story one can understand why it takes so long sometimes, which I am sure increases the cost. I love listening to the vocalization though I know it is hard sometimes to get them recorded. I hope Gimli finds his right foster mom and foster troop, and lives a long, happy life.
I believe they said that they receive money for watching ads . Well I put the first season on and hit auto play then go to sleep while it continues to play all night. When I wake up it has gone through a lot of ads !
I agree. Gimili's complicated story shows the effects of trauma on surviving babies. It was heartbreaking to see him at the depths of despair. I can't believe he was finally integrated into a troop!
Il est un peu excité mais de voir la maman tenir ce bébé exactement comme nous tenons nos bébés, c'est beau à voir et ça les rapproche beaucoup de nous....contrairement aux maman macaques qui n'ont pas ça....Surement qu'il y a des niveaux d'évolution différents d'une race de singes à une autre....
Favourite episode yet. Such a mindfuck to see other channels in the same country legally enjoying hunting these guys, picking them off with headshots with their guns.
It always cracks me up when they run on their hind legs especially when they grab food and run off like a little burglar looking behind them as they run off with their very own treasure..like the at the very first scene with Collin and another adult male they both are getting their morning meds mixed in with seeds and other treats but it cracked me up!
@21:50 Brianee (not sure how to spell the alpha females name) goes in after Gimli like ok little boy we’ve been patient and let you take your time but it’s been 2 hours now, I’m dragging you out by your tail! 😂
I thought in order for the wee ones that they have a definite chosen surrogate who will always pick them up pull them close to their chest to protect and watch over them ad their own in case of any altercation or fight so wee one wont be attacked or abandoned and left on his own should a fight ensue?
Question... what exactly is a seed pod? I've never seen one so I'm completely clueless as to what it is. Is it a type of veggie or fruit or am I totally off base?
@@VervetMonkey Do they really? I cannot tell you how badly your answer disappoints me. Surely you jest, considering they have constant forage plus two delivered meals daily! If they only wanted the food, why would they bother at all with the babies, and eventually take a baby out into the troop? Please tell me that was merely irony you wrote.
@Pooka All the monkeys care about is food, fornicating and sleeping. Food is number one priority and the best food is in the into cages. Everything else is secondary, that’s how nature works. It doesn’t care about humans feelings on how things run.
I shared a video and a story about your foundation on my Facebook page. I don't have a ton of Facebook friends, but I thought it might not hurt. I wrote a pretty long post trying to explain the foundation, I hope I got everything right. If you get a chance, I would appreciate it if you would read through it to make sure I got everything right? If I need to correct something, I will be happy to do so or you may feel free to correct it in the comments. I know you are busy and may not have time to do so, I think I got the important stuff right. I also increased my monthly pledge, I wish I could do more. If I were still working I definitely would, but I have been disabled for 12 years now and this is the best I can do. I really believe in the work you are doing and I will support you and monkeys in way I can. Btw: Facebook name: Mary A. Galimberto. My profile pic is a brown and white dachshund.

Gimli isn't the poor little sad monkey anymore! Wonderful things you all do there.

I so agree with you. I actually wept to see Gimli finding his mother and a home.--Virginia, USA
Little Gimli you are a heart stealer. Good luck with your new mum. So wonderful to see him thrive and enjoy being a monkey 🐒

Everyone remember to watch the ads. This aids the Vervet Foundation, every little bit helps them.
Patricia look at my comment on how I try and help by watching ads or at least letting them play lol

Sweet little Gimly. I am so happy he was welcomed with so much love and acceptance. :)
You all are a wonderful team - Thank you for all you do each day for these monkeys :D

So happy for him!
His play face is too cute😀
i so love Gimli

Gimli so desperately wants that Mommy contact! I am so happy that he experienced it. ❤🐒
Sooo....sweet .you guys are amazing...love wins ❤ 💕 ♥ 💖 💗
I'm not crying; you're crying. 😆 Finally, what a spectacular moment for both of them.

It’s so sweet hearing the sounds that a happy little monkey makes that’s found their foster mom. 🙂❤️ And a monkey troop like it should be 🙂
Saw this video and laugh!
Growing up my brother and I climbed
pine trees to the top and swinging
on the branches.
My name is Marie and brother is Colin.
Gee, we were monkey’s in a tree!
Gimli is so so happy it makes me cry how much he loves his foster mom!! I pray one day I can come and volunteer with you guys
How wonderful Gimli gets the Alpha as his mom!
After all he's been through, he deserves being adopted by the alpha!
It's so sad to see ex pets struggle after being humanized. Their struggle is so heartbreaking.
There are still videos on youtube of people getting baby monkeys for pets - they just do not understand and pet shops have NO BUSINESS selling baby monkeys. It's horrid!

great idea
We just want to hug them and squeeze them and love on them forever and ever🥺🥺🥰🥰!!! -Ray & Pay, future pet vets
It makes me really happy to see little Gimli in a good mood...
Thanks for amazing video 🙏💚
gimili is my favorite little hero! he touches my heart at most and i haven't any clue why.
Wowza...
Colin, and Murray fighting over enrichment...
Cute .. boys will be boys
Gimli has turned out to be quite the handfull
Gabe and Gimli! ❤️❤️❤️
Dodo Come Back Kid #2?!? I think so!!! Please have The Dodo do a video on this little guy.

Someone needs to make some memes of Gimlis transformation!!!
Would be nice if you could have some apple trees there among other fruit trees

I missed the reason some of the monkeys live alone- is it because they came in as full adults and so wont integrate?
sometimes age or preference
@@VervetMonkey Or physical condition, correct?
They're so cute

Gimli needed to be hugged so much but now he really wants someone to play with so badly.
you should see him now

what about briyani? wasnt she bonded with gimli?
Hey can I have more raisins please?
Where is Kyle? Is he ok?
What determines if they are low ranking or high?
Its normally family line, so you born into it
Me thinks you tie those batches of food too tight..
