The Vervet Forest is a wildlife rehab series focused on Vervet Monkeys at the Vervet Monkey Foundation. The series showcases the process of taking orphaned and injured vervet monkeys through a foster mother program which helps these rescued orphan baby monkeys to be adopted by foster mother monkeys. The show is for fans of animal planet, nat geo, discovery and anyone who is an animal lover, loves animals and would like to be part of helping them get back to the wild.

*These animals are not pets they are rescued wildlife undergoing a rehabilitation program at the Vervet Monkey Foundation in South Africa*
Fabulous to see these monkeys being able to intergrate back into the wild with their own kind. A new and full life for them. You all do such great work for these animals.
What a sweet mom she obviously chose her baby from very beginning
I love seeing the arms and legs wrapped around the mums! Those little hands and "feet" clinging is so wonderful to see!!
Loved this episode. When Daisy entered and the babies ran into her arms, my heart melted. That was the cutest thing ever. The 3 little rascals trying to take the food was so funny. Very brave of them. Thank you for introducing the members behind the scenes. They are an Important part of the foundation. Thank you everyone for all that you do. God bless you.
24:12 The SMILE 😁 on Josh's face makes you believe in happy endings!!! How beautiful!❤️❤️❤️
This is the first time I have ever heard that beautiful sound they’re making with their voices, so very beautiful!!
What I like about this channel, we get to see the troop truly acting normal and in their natural habitat. I also like how their integration program for the orphans is handled.
@Dave I always enjoy each episode, and can't wait for the next week the following Thursday. I enjoyed you introducing the behind the scenes team. Keep up the great work.
Yes Dave always does a wonderful job❤
Glad you enjoyed it
Those little monkies are so funny & I love it when Dave narrates what we are seeing. 😄👏🐵
Floki is moving in a spectacular way! Bravo! So impressed! I love seeing babies from past seasons in their troops. The various stages of development are a joy to watch!
I agree 100% I think each one becomes more beautiful by the day.
My favorite part of this whole process is watching the mothers adopt the babies there is nothing more precious🥰
😊
30:38 is the most beautiful moment ever- when a Foster Mum lipsmacks when she gets that first hug from her baby. I love it. Again, I'm just so in awe over what you guys do at the Foundation. I know it's a lot of work, but the fact that is works, is just a testament to everything you do. You all are simply amazing. I wonder if you're gonna split up those three babies, as they cling to each other a bit too much? I don't know- admittedly I'm not finished watching the episode, but felt compelled to comment over the Mum's "ahhhh, my baby" moment.
I've when the foster mom knew which baby she wabmntrd and made a b-line straight for the baby and the feeling was mutual. Only at vmf.
Just as you describe it: the "ahhhh, my baby" moment." Perfect.
Кто нибудь знает что случилось с мамой Эмили и ее сыном Альбертом?
@@I.Sh. Hello. This is Carolyn McPherson. Google Translate tells me you are asking, "Does anyone know what happened to Emily's mom and her son Albert?" [Google translate frequently comes up with some very strange translations, though I do see the names Emily and Albert in your test.] But I don't recognize the names. Perhaps someone else knows. Best wishes.
Thank you!
I look forward to this every week. It never disappoints!!
You are part of a very large group of, well, groupies. We have renamed Thursday: now it's VervetDay. Much more accurate--not such a nod to the god Thor--and saves from the confusion of having two days in English that begin with a "T".
I'm amazed. I have not seen it where the babies didn't run around screaming when a foster mum came in. Very brave babies these are.
So funny today, i laughed so hard at the end with skyking,momo. Love all of them, thanks guys for all you do. Alan, your little tales are the best 🙏❤️🐵
This has to be my favorite video of the monkeys because of all the girls interactions with the babies!
I'm very jealous and yet very appreciative for each and everyone of you who help take care of these precious creatures. Please Lord bless these monkeys with all that they need and keep them safe from evil
Those 3 are so mischievous but cute. The mommas will have their paws full.
Josh is just too cute! 🥺 he is so in love with his new mommy. This is just beautiful. Thank you Dave and VMF for everything you do for these precious babies. ❤️
Our pleasure!
I just love the sounds they make.
I love watching all your hard work! Thank God for all of you who volunteer, and the sanctuary itself. Who knows what would happen to these poor things without you. Now they'll have a healthy happy life.
Thanks for this wonderful video - it shows all your babies are so full of life and happy - soon they all will find a mom!
Floki!! I always love seeing his progress, he’s looking good! Thanks for taking such good care of the little one’s and letting Floki be with them on occasion also! He does love playing daddy ♥️
Around the 30:00 mark, it’s amazing how the foster mom is lip smacking with the baby, and even how mesmerized the little baby is with her. I know the other two wish to have that bond with a mom and fingers crossed as I keep watching that will follow.
I'm glad to see that your team has found support from the new volunteers they so desperately need.
HOW CAN THY FEED THAM WITH NO MIKE
Mike does not feed them Ann does
Look at that the helpers in the back ground. Thank you so much fir the work they do. 😁
I could see, that Josh really wants a mom - and he must be so happy, that he found a foster mom very quick - I really enjoyed the moment, when Josh kisses his mom...
These moments are so dear.

I think Josh is the cutest of this bunch. I am glad Daisy Mae made it. I was worried she was so clingy..yall are the best!
From 14 minutes on when Dave does commentary the video. The professional manner and with his knowledge is astounding. Wish more people had this experience and compassion!
I'm down today and then I got you in my notifications and I feel better watching you guys. Thanks for all the good, kind work you do. 🕯🌈🌈🌈🌈❤💯🙈🙊🙉🐵🐒💚🤗💞👐👍👍👍
Awesome! Thank you!
You're welcome. This week has been a hard one but seeing vmf always brightens the week up. Sometimes we wish it would be longer but you guys are amazing at what you do and understandably quite busy. 💞💞💞💞👐👍🤗🤗🤗🤗
Hi! I've been AWOL but hope to catch the Saturday live show and see you there.
Their little cooing voices are so sweet and adorable. Melts your heart.
What a pleasure, Dave, to hear you narrating and laughing at the antics of these little ones. You must be so gratified to see what has blossomed from your initial desire to protect that baby you were given so long ago. You were told to go ahead and kill it and, in your telling, you said, "Hello, no." And here you are!
I enjoy going back and watching over the videos again. This is one of my favorites because the babies are not scared of the foster mom. I lke Daisy the most and I think the babies fill most comfortable with her ❤
Happy Easter VM sanctuary both volunteers and all the little, big and human monkeys 🙉 ! Everyone stay well and safe . When I saw the babies being taken down to the intro cage the volunteer was so excited for those monkeys that I really felt the inner love and happiness the wonderful volunteer tenderly expressed for the monkeys 🙉 . Big hug to all and Uncle Flokie too!
Thank you
What do you mean by human monkeys?
At 34:13 The person talking in the background is hilarious 😂😂😂🐒 🐒
Its so amazing to me how the females come over to the fence and look at the babies! And trying to bond with them through the fence.
They are just beautiful 💕
They're NOT beautiful but they are cute!!
@DonnaGalloway-bs6xh you can think what you want. And I can think what I want. Leave it at that
@noonie0685 monkeys in these countries are quite homely and ordinary!! You should see the. Monkeys that actually live in the REAL forests of AFRICA and Australia! Now these monkeys are ACTUALLY beautiful 😍! They take good care of their young and are WAY smarter than these Asian monkeys!!
I love watching the little orphans, grow and mature and get mommies and then become little monkeys again! Thank you for all you do! Merry Christmas!!
I watched the last couple of the weekend live shows and seeing Floki running around is incredible to me. I never thought I'd see him standing on all fours and my smile lasted a good part of the day. Is he a danger to the little ones or will he be able to hang out with them a bit?
Another excellent video! Thank you, to all of the volunteers and staff for their hard work and dedication! 🙏 💖
Glad you enjoyed it
💕💖🐒🐒🐒💖💕 Absolutely luv to see the little ones pair up with the foster moms! You guys really have the process down.. great system integrating them back into normal monkey life of freedom. SO SUPER AWESOME 10,000 LIKES FOR YOU GUYS AAA+++ savior of monkeys, they are so lucky to have you
Thank you so much!
Yolanda is my favorite! I'm glad to see her in this video again... Previously I had Gimli as my favorite...
But basically I love all the monkey orphans, which you give a chance for a new and better start in life. Thank you again for all your care, patience and love for these wonderful creatures.
God Bless You all ,you guys truly are angels❤ I'd like to Thank each and Everyone for ALL you do, I wish i could do more but i never miss a episode..Thanks again❤🙏🐒
27:47 I missed the name of this adult female, but what a lovely scene at this point. It was very moving to see how all the babies wanted to be near her immediately and one in particular stretched his neck up to go nose to nose with her straight away, followed by hug! That Mum has the makings of another Mrs Gold. Delightful.
Dave is such an entertaining narrator. I really appreciate all the background stories.
Thanks for listening
Love watching you guys and these precious babies. I love monkeys are when you see how some people have made them money and they will do it at any cost. Harm or any way to entertain. It's good to see good out of ppl. Not everyone is cruel. Thank you again
It's so cute how the babies get to cling to the foster moms, since they were deprived of that clinging with their bio-moms. ❤
Thanks!
Great episode. 47:00 onwards.. So lovely to hear the chuckle in Dave's voice as he describes the behaviour of the babies. It's good to hear that all the difficulties of the past 2 or 3 years haven't diminished his enjoyment of the work. Such good integrations this time. Thanks for sharing all the developments each week! 👍
Certain moments are absolutely magical to see.
Must have been a very wet winter for how everything is so green and lush for the Vervets
wet summer - we going into winter now
The baby that's fur has already changed color really wants Daisey as a Mummy. 🐒💚
Hi Johnny, I thought maybe you'd like to watch this again with my question as well as Dave's response. It's amazing:
Do we have a jealous little baby at 33:47 lol it seems to be pushing the others away as if to say "get away from this mother she's mine"!

Another great video! Again thank you for continuing to film there!♥️
Glad you enjoyed!
I want to volunteer .......to be a member of a troop. These guys and gals have it made!!! Just kidding, thanks for sharing the videos with us. I'm addicted. If I had been young and single and unattached I think I have found my profession. I'm 77 so I can't but you can, your fortunate, and THANKS from the bottom of my heart.
I always look forward to watching you each evening
I appreciate that
very nice to see! Thank you 😊
Glad you enjoyed it
Good job!Congratulations !
Candy is so funny - she has a very cute face...
Finalizing my travel arrangements. I'll be there in September!! Can't wait to get to work!
I'm sure you'll love it! I'm quite envious and wish such an opportunity had been available when I was young and able to cope with the heat and the heavier manual work. But thank goodness for the amazing invention that is the Internet and I can enjoy watching others having such a rewarding experience. Good luck!
@@julieprior3126 I hear you. I'm going to give it a shot. I just turned 63. Looking forward to it.
@@jimbowers5402 Wow! Good on you! I'm 66 (30 in my head, 80 in body!). I shall look forward to seeing you on video at VMF towards the end of the year. 👍
@@julieprior3126 I'll say hello😎
@@jimbowers5402 😊
Sweet little angels
Would love to see the size difference of when they come into care to the size they are before they join their new mommies.. I know the are very small from the get go.. it's really hard to judge their actual size through the phone/videos. Tia very much 🥰🥰🥰
The monkeys that move on into the forest, are the given any fruit, water
yes
how much would it cost to get a truck load of fruit or vegetables on average and how would one go about getting that delivered to the foundation...
It is around R1500 per load $105 by far the easiest is to go to paypal.me/vervetforest as we would need to collect it, we try support emerging farmers where we can and they dont really have vehicles
@@VervetMonkey That would make the perfect request for funding. You could phrase it like, “Buy a truckload of fruit and veggies for the vervets for $105 which will feed all the troops on our property for one day”. This would give folks a goal amount of $$ to donate to VMF.
@@lyric8006 What a good idea. I wonder how many truckloads would be needed to feed 600 plus monkeys each day. I thought there was a special "Floki fundraiser" coming up that Ellie was organizing (I think but not positive) but I didn't hear any more about it unless I missed it.
Do the females also have babies out in the troops
Where is sweet loving candy?
She is so sweet just fell in
Love with her!!
What do they eat when they get out?
Every now and then we have to tolerate one of the girls singing and humming making up songs trying to rap ( think!) I think that most of us tune in to listen and get information from Dave, Mark or Connie. I think that sometimes there are those who on microphone and videotaping are just…..I don’t know. I’m an old fuddy daddy but I Love the history about the babies and what happened to them and it’s so nice when they get a mom. Thank you for that! This foundation is really amazing! No clothes for baby monkeys and no nappies.
You speak a lot about the females, but what happens to the little boys what do they do in the troop?
do the mothers have milk
I could watch these babies play all day. I think baby monkeys are the cutest babies.
Как они мило курлычат
Do we have a jealous little baby at 33:47 lol it seems to be pushing the others away as if to say "get away from this mother she's mine"!
I think we do
Do you have ay till past 2022). D love to see more newer film;

I love Wednesday's.
Lol isn't it Thursday? 🐒🐵🙉🙊🙈💯❤🌈🕯
@@ickiedeer-lamb7282 I get the video early. I'm on the west coast so it's Wednesday nights for me.
@@lisavictoria5628 - I’m in Mountain time zone … I don’t get the video until Thursday about 11:00 am. Weird.
@@BBB-rd2qi I'm a memeber of the channel. I donate $10 a month and this is one of the perks, getting the weekly video a day early. I would donate more but $10 was the highest. The monkey next to names on the comment feeds are from members that donate.
@@lisavictoria5628 - That makes sense. Thank you.
Losing track of names. Who is the baby who had more golden colored fur who was giving the mom all the kisses? Did they end up together?
Can you tell us what happened to the precious baby that had brain damage who was stoned with her mom who died??
Why isn't there commentary any more? In the Disneyland clip all there is is background talking and then in the Gizmo enclosure no one is telling which moms are in and which babies are being carried.
turn your volume up, im talking for more than 80% of the video
Where is RoJo?
We have never had a monkey called RoJo - you probably on the wrong Channel
Hey Dave, it seems you have a surplus of volunteers now. Congratulations, I know it must have been very difficult for you
and your permanent cadre during the lockdown.
If you start running low on provisions to feed the volunteers I have a few suggestions. Go to your local McDonalds and buy
12 single patty hamburgers. Cut them into quarters and put them on one of those big round pans.
Throw the pan into the middle of the volunteer enclosure and run.
You could also create Volunteer competitions based on the Hunger Games. Losers would not be killed because
that would be cruel. Losers would agree to a one week fasting which will act as a great lower intestinal cleansing.
They would be provided all the water they can drink and be allowed to eat any food rejected by the troops.
The VMF is all vegan.
I just want to complement you guys for getting so much love to all the little babies and the mamas and all that you do for them I would love to come and work with you how precious so happy you get each one of the names and you have to learn who is who thank you so much for caring and loving these little babies and mamas makes my heart filled with love thank you thank you keep up the good work it is so nice they are so sweet I just like to get a hold of one kiss it’s a little face all over even the mamas good work my name is Betty mounds and I am from Ohio this is the best Dr. Mentry I have ever seen love love it can you ladies that are taking care of the little baby thank you you’re doing a good job I love you all❤
They're cute but no one should be kissing on them!! They smell horrible and can carry nasty diseases to humans!! Be careful! Remember they're wild animals!!!
Oltre i vostri bellissimi video, a volte ne guardo alcuni girati in Santuari in Asia. Lì i piccolini sono spesso vittime di madri che li rifiutano perché ibridi, abbandonati e anche uccisi. E nessuno in quei luoghi interviene per salvare loro la vita, men che meno i VO, che assistono incuranti a tante tragedie con il solo scopo di girare e guadagnare con i loro filmini. Vorrei che anche per quei piccoli innocenti ci fosseto persone che potessero accudirli amorevolmente come fate nella vostra Fondazione. 💞💞
Why do you cover the cages while moving the babies?
the wild troop gets upset and the babies also get frightened by seeing older monkeys
How do I make a donation to u guys.

Is Kyle still there?
no
Aw wish him the best! He was awesome! Thank you for continuing to film your work.
А,что там за взрослые макаки за забором,их мамашки,что ли????😂😂😂😂😂
Is this foundation still active?
yes
❤
😁👋👍👍👏👏💕🙏
A lot of off-camera chatter in this one!
No on camera chatter
Sound is not in sync very well in the video.
sound and video are recorded together as one so impossible not to be synced
I thought I was the only one with this issue, but it's only in this video
Não gosto de gaiolas, ainda mais superlotadas.
Vai vender os macaquinhos?
