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*
I think it is so sad how so many of these babies are becoming orphans, but Vervet Monkey Foundation is doing such great work at re-habilitating them and putting them with a foster-mom. 👍🐵💓
Wish l could help you all.
You are truly a man with a heart of gold Dave! Much love from Canada

My thoughts exactly 💯 😕
Dave, you all @ VMF are doing such an amazingly-awesome job taking care of all monkeys in your care! Wow--babies are coming in really fast but everyone is taking great care of them too!! God Bless you all and much love & prayers from the USA! 🦍😇❤
WOW, You all have really got your hands full with all those babies, and they're still coming in, not to mention the feeding of all the different troops that are on-site and the many other things that need to be completed daily! I wish so much that I could travel there to help, but I can't, so I will do what I can, by continuing to Donate Money to help with the financial needs of the Foundation! 😊 PLEASE, YOU CAN HELP TOO💲 💗
Great post!!!
I absolutely am in love with floki! He’s such a sweet and special guy! Looking after the babies and even with his injuries & recovery he’s always been more worried about & interested in them... the babies are so easy to love though, I get it floki! 🥰♥️
Thank you for this video!
The videos are really awesome now. Just lots of babies with minimal editing. I'm really loving the occasional voiceover explainations too! I can't volunteer but am watching all the ads which hopefully helps a bit.
I never realized what a BEAUTIFUL country you live in .I hope people who can will be charitable this holiday season(tax).I ve said before Dave and Josie and VMF staff do an amazing job.I love that you all care Soooo much.
Another fantastic episode. Dave- I learn so much with your narrative- you are an incredible soul. I really loved the conversations among the staff, plus the conversations between staff and monkeys. I used to think you guys didn't talk to them on purpose (so they wouldn't bond to humans?) but a part of me felt badly that noone was talking to them. Now I see that it's not true- you all do in fact talk to them and encourage them, etc. All of you are incredible and I'm, as always, so grateful that you are sharing all of your hard work and expertise with us viewers. I wish so much I could volunteer, but I'm at home looking after my daughter, who's got a lot of special needs. But one day I hope to come and lend a hand. Until then, we'll just continue to support all of you the best way we know how. Thank you so much for all that you do- and letting us be a small part of it!
Dave, you are an unsung hero! Much love and admiration from Ohio, USA. (not all of us have gone mad, lol)
This small monkey babies now in good hands - thank for all your support and care - I like this video a lot, that is why I am watching it again...
Little Bru is very cute - I love watching at him, when he is drinking from the bottle...I wish him a good new life from now on...
They are so darn cute and the way they suck their fingers when they sleep is so cute. Floki is such a great big brother.
It is the cutest I've seen also these babies are in good hands.
Can't wait to watch the babies with foster mom's. I love them all.
That lil guy that acts as the babies' protector is so sweet!!
Floki 💗 coming over to great little baby Yeliz so sweetly absolutely just owns my heart too!! He truly is such a sweet boy and a unique monkey!!! I Love him! ❤️
Wow. Disneyland is filling up. So many babies at once. Thank you everyone at the VMF for the awesome job you all do in taking care of all the babies and extended troops. If I was a lot younger I would love to go there and volunteer.
Your care for all this babies is very amazing....thanks a lot!
The little tongue poking out; This baby is very young judging how blue her eyes are. Thank you for all your dedication to these little babies.
What I learn from most of your videos is : That you have to drive a lot . I am really impresed about all your work and your good care for each monkey. I am happy to see, that little Bru will start a new live with your support!
Thank you very much!
Thank you for another amazing video 🙏💚
His little eyes are so sweet. I love their alien shaped skulls when they are little. Donating to VMF is super important to me. I wish you all and the supporters a lovely holiday season.
God bless you for what you are doing . Such precious little babies .
Love the video format!! Thanks Dave and VMF Team
Little Yeliz and her tongue! Sweet baby!
Same here from canada. Just love the monkeys. Light of my day watching what their up to
These little guys are just too daggone sweet and adorable! Floki is the biggest sweetheart ever! I love them so much! I really do wish I could volunteer. It's been my dream since I was a kid to work with monkeys but it's impossible for me... 😢 I donate monthly and watch every video to help as much as I can but really do wish I could do more...
Amazing video as always! So very proud of Floki the great protector! ❤️
Bru and the new little girl are so cute.
What you do is truely a blessing
Wow! It doesn’t take long to get a full house again.
Floki is so precious!
May you all be blessed 1000xs over
I love Chimp Eden! Years ago they had a show on TV. I didn’t realize you two worked together.
Adorable babies, Beautiful caretakers
Yeliz and Bru are quite the pair!!!! As much as I enjoy these babies, I do worry that there are so many coming in so early in the season!!! I really wish I could come over and help!! But, as I've said before, my disability would only let me do things that don't have a lot of physical activity...in my next life I am definitely going to volunteer at the VMF for years to make up not being able to do it in this life!! 😁💖💜💙💓🐒🐒🐒🐒
I think that's amazing that you would drive 5 hours to pick up a baby monkey that's awesome may God bless you
Would live to volunteer, but can't. I hope you find some good people soon. I love the special videos.
I know I would love to but I'm in the states and would find it so hard to leave my adult children and grandchildren to go across country
So many of us can't volunteer right now. Infection rates are going up in the northern hemisphere. 🙁
@@Kim-lc3fv it doesn't necessarily mean you can't travel. You may just need a negative test prior to travel. If you want to, look into rules to travel to SA during covid-19. They are open to tourists now, so I'm sure you can go for volunteering.
@@waitaminute2015 well, that's great news! I thought the lodges, etc were only open to SA tourists. I'll check it out.
@@waitaminute2015 can you send me the information for my daughter to apply for volunteer
This terrain strongly resembles southern California, USA!
16:51 those little babies sleeping so cute
Oh my Goodness he is so precious! Ugh I want to come volunteer so so so so badly. If anyone is planning on going to Africa and wants to take me with you so I can go volunteer here for probably the next 20 years, I'll love you forever!! 😭😭😭
Wonderful sanctuary I watched the few season's Escape to Chimp Eden it was amazing like your foundation I've learned so much just watching both , now just about these little veret babies I want to learn much more so I watch and pay so much attention on how much-needed your foundation is. I never new about these beautiful beings saved and forever protected by living their lives out in protected land. You are such a welcomed and loved program. I hope soon to become one of many to support with donations, but I first need to buy a new fridge lol 3 year's to long with out.
Thanks to all of yall for saving the baby monkeys 🐒 I love them so much 💗
Those babies are so adorable, I love to watch them! I am glad that they are safe!!😍😍
I would love to volunteer but I-am in California. How darling. Keep up what your doing. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
THE BLEP AT 9:38 IS SO CUTE GAUCYKGDIGD
The second looks like a really newborn. So tiny
So samll, so cute, I hope this monkey baby will have a long life! Renate-Germany
I’m in love with Bru 💚🌝
it is such a shame that I don't live close there because I would come and volunteer all my time to these babies. I would love these babies so much and take such good care of them it's just in me to do that I have a lot of love for animals especially Little monkeys any kind of monkeys really. Little bit of chimpanzeesa little. Just a little baby looks so cute sleeping there on your leg it's just so tiny how could anybody ever mistreat anything like this. Thank you for doing what y'all do is good to see people taking care of them for a change instead of mean on some of these videos
They are the cutest babies. I wish I could volunteer. But I am 67 yrs old and not really well enough to keep up with the demand.
Cupcake looks to be doing super well!!!!!!
If only I could get there
I wish I could volunteer,but I live far far away
❤️🐒❤️🐒❤️
hi monkey man
❤️
He is a beautiful little baby. He is so tiny but have such a long trail
Beautiful! Is it hard for the volunteers to resist cuddling the tiny babies like the female? I know intellectually it's best they learn to be little monkeys but the mom in me wants to comfort them.

If you'll bring me from Canada I'm down for 7 24 hours per day in the "baby time nursery:. I'll literally live in that room on a cot.
I notice a great deal more "prone on the back bottle feeding" then has been the habit of volunteers in the past, and of course is not normally how a baby suckles, as with there mother they normally are vertical while nursing an that is therefore better for babies when being bottle fed a sits easier for them to get the idea that suck, swallow and breath is the same with a nipple as with mom's teat. When laid back over a leg, lap or arm, as you might do with a human baby, you are giving them a whole new thing to learn to do to get milk and also risk them not having as much control as when they are vertical and actually aspirating small amounts of milk or having the sensation of not being able to breath with fluid in their mouth and throat and panicking and making the bottle a scary thing. And since you expect them to go back to a more normal upright position to nurse from bottles in feeding cages it would seem to be better to just continue to allow them to be in the vertical nursing position. which is natural for them, has a more conducive way to bottle feed and making it, as it should be, a happy experience for baby. And small primates are ones that tend to be a bit like turtles when placed on their backs for any reason, they start to panic and feel very exposed as the abdomen and chest are their most vulnerable areas and its instinct for them to feel that way and making the feel safe and comfortable and rewarded (with milk) for being calm in that position might lessen their instinct to protect vulnerable parts.
I noticed the same. I wonder what has changed.
I think you comparing them to humans these are monkeys although primates they suckle upside down on the mothers, while climbing and running through the bush - we do what is comfortable for the baby and the position that it seems to enjoy drinking the most milk so positions will change from babby to baby year to year
@@VervetMonkey thank you for the explanation.
If I had the money to get there I would totally come help take care of those precious little things. You probably would never be able to get me to leave 😂😂 But plane tickets from the US to there are not very cheap and unfortunately I will probably never ever get the chance to volunteer here. ;( but will continue to donate and do anything else I can for those babies! You guys are Angel's on earth for what you do. ❤
That one is so cute. I wish I could have one but I live in the states
That's so sad to hear that they give these babies alcohol and whatever else they do to be entertained. Poor babies...glad that at least some of them make it to you guys! Thanks for all you do!
which of these major flight destinations are you guys closest too? Cape Town, Johannesburg or Durban?
Wouldnt a sling around your shoulder and chest provide a snug safer place for little monkey? If you have not considered I would be happy to make one for you...
What was that silver thing in front of the car bobbing about to the left and right and right side of the car?
Driving with a live small animal in the car doesn't sound very safe. Have you tried a baby carrier that goes across your chest. Thanks for working so hard to rescue these tiny defenseless animals.
lot safer then a large wild animal like a deer or moose - thanks for your concern its pretty safe out here
If I lived their I would volunteer but I live in the usa
I love these little ones but I Live in Brazil.and cant volunteer
we have had 2 volunteers from Brazil
@@VervetMonkey really? Who paid their expensas?
They had their mother and she’s gone now. They must be terrified. :(
LUCKILY they have lots of friends and soon will each have a foster mother! An orphan baby couldn’t have wound up in a better place than VMF!

Actually in terms of video what would be awesome is 360 degrees. Most mobile phones will do it (I have an old nokia that does 360 degrees). Attach it to a small stand and attach that to the middle of a plate with some food on it. Even a cheap VR headset will show you how amazing the experience is.

I respect what you do but wouldn't it be safer to have monkeys in a travel basket designed for pets when in a car?
Can people travel to South Africa right now?
Yes they can
Arozz Marisco, the videographer in Hong Kong, let his viewers know the VMF was in need of help in a video that posted on Friday night Dec 4th.
thats really kind of him
How long do they need to be bottle fed ?
almost 1 year
@@VervetMonkey can you send me the information so my daughter can apply for volunteer with the baby monkeys that's in quarantine
Are u all raising a new breed of monkey now? They so beautiful
What jerk would feed them alcohol?
What happened to Kyle
Are brevets considered pests where you live?
certainly not where I live but in surrounding area;s yes - but then again are not all animals considered pests once we destroy there habitat and take over there homes for ours
@@VervetMonkey That’s an interesting opinion. Vervet monkeys are not an endangered breed
nor are humans, do we have to drive everything to the brink of extinction before we become concerned or could we become concerened now while they depleting and make sure we can all live on this planet without one of us breeding out of control.
Sorry I give all to "The Human Fund".
So often I see bottles held to the baby's mouths which are empty, or contain so little milk that they are not tipped up far enough for any milk to reach the nipple. Why is this? Could the carers not be trained to use their heads and eyes and stop expecting babies to suck an empty teat? I know you are by far understaffed and overwhelmed, and everybody is doing the best they can, but I have seen this specific lapse from earliest times of watching videos from VMF so it is not a result of current overstretch.
dont worry rhe amount of milk they drink per day is monitored and hey babies are weighed to make sure they being fed properly
@@VervetMonkey I have no concern the babies are being underfed, I assure you. My concern is solely the frustration they must feel at being offered empty bottles so frequently. No offense intended, only genuine concern.
bottles are assigned to each monkey and they need t drink a certain amount in each feed, if they have almost finnished there bottle there wont be much left in it
@@VervetMonkey Very good. :)
What's with all these abandoned baby monkeys? Something about it just smacks of monkey exploitation, business if you will. Somebody's getting rich off of them and it isn't all done on youtube. Just sayin'...
Vervet monkeys have there single offspring ones a year from October to late December, mothers are slower crossing the road, farmers think they breeding out of control - these are only a fraction that we manage to save. please visit our webpage vervet.za.org before making wild assumptions
A question...does gentle quiet music soothe Them?
