    Kyle, as a rabid fan of your work on this channel, I just wanted to point out how unique Bell and Vera are. They are totally identifiable and stood out from the rest for different reasons. Bell is truly unique in here facial and temper expressions, one can tell her from the rest without the ID paint. Vera exibits monkey behaviors that is out of the norm as well. I really hope we get more updates on these two even after intergration.

    I know this is an older video but I like to go back and rewatch the previous season it episodes. Sadly that’s all we will all have now that Kyle is no longer going to be filming at VMF 😢!! I’m thankful we have so many videos to watch and look back at these precious souls get a second chance at life. I personally am thankful for all I learned about monkeys wild and humanized and the trauma it causes the monkeys when they live with humans. I had my mind set since I was a little girl to someday own a lil monkey maybe a little marmoset but thanks to VMF and Kyle I saw the damage and trauma and if you truly love animals you couldn’t possibly do that to them. Now would I foster or care for one that was unable to return to wild due to disability, injury or being raised by a human and also can no longer survive in the wild due to humanization. I wish Kyle well and truly hope to see more videos in the future of him working with primates...I even loved learning about baboons when he shot a couple videos at CARE! Thank you again Kyle for all you have done for these lil guys and also all the entertainment & knowledge you gifted us with, you truly are a talented man and I have no doubt you will go far in life. 😊 🐒 💗 🐵 💗

    Sometimes I wonder (when a baby is introduced to a possible foster mom for the first time) if it triggers reliving a traumatic excruciating memory of when their Mom got hit by a car and died. And that perhaps this might be another reason why they scream in terror. I’ve seen some of the foster Moms urgently comfort them in that moment, and that’s why it made me think of this possibility. That perhaps the foster Mom somehow knew. Maybe they talk to each other about these things? It’s genuinely tender to observe how loving the foster Moms really are to the babies. They must know on a deep level of your profound compassion to help all of them. To their dear minds, it must feel like a terrifying pandemic that all of these Moms had died such traumatic deaths. Thank you for availing to them profoundly safer environments. They must immensely appreciate your inordinate kindnesses.

    I just love All you guys do for these amazing animals! My heart especially goes out to the blind monkeys because my Dad was blind and it was amazing how fast his other senses kicked into over drive and truly made him seem super human much like animals once they figure out their home they are pretty much same as ones who can see. I even had friends growing up who said we where lying about Dad being blind because of how fast he got around and even cooked some amazing meals. So many people are quick to want to put an animal down wild or domestic just because of something like blindness, amputation or other things that makes them different but the body is amazing how it adapts and eventually the injured ends up thriving.
    I love that you show how normal the monkeys are and how much you do for these guys, all of you at VMF are true angels on earth. Bless you all and love to all those gorgeous monkeys!

    You really caught some good footage of the blind baby in the box/kennel being introduced through the fencing to other monkeys. What you caught her with the baby moving her head from side to side was her using her listening skills to investigate her surroundings. It was some excellent example footage, even if you did not realize right away what year were catching but because there was conversation and other noises in the background at different levels of volume (perhaps in distance too) as well as your voice which was closer she was listening on one side and then twisting around to hear with her other ear and then turning back so that she could then determine from that same ear the difference in the sounds when she was facing forward. Even human children without vision will do something similar and its a ways to get a more dimensional picture of what is around you instead of thinking the sounds are all coming from the same place. You can think of it as the difference between look at the 3d world we live in rather than a 2d world where everyone and everything is flatten like on a picture. That is why when you are working with them it's important to make some noise, whether it's just conversation to them or to others or to yourself, shuffling your feet, tapping parts ot the structures or furnishings and so on so they hear the movement. I am not sure how good humans are at doing this but clind animals such as monkeys, dogs, cats and to some extent squirrels and rabbits can be contained is a small area of a room and introduced to it through should such as people making some noise as they move around, what certain things sound like when tapped or banged into, the size of the areas by talking as your moving around and making noise with your feet. If you do this they are much better oriented to a room when let out of their confinement and into the greater space. They still have to move from area to area to learn things by touch but they usually have a good aide of where at least bigger objects are as they have already done some mapping by sound. Having a monkey leave a kennel in one corner of the room and immediately head for a set of climbing bars on the other side of the room so they can get 'up to a safe place' before you can even pick them up and take them around to introduce them to things is a much better way of them learning to cope since, as time goes by, there may not be humans around to introduce them to new spaces all the time. What can be done with hearing can be pretty amazing when its needed to also take over for sight. Sadly in humans its not always as good as it is in most animals that are a step ahead as they are born to rely on all their sense to a much greater degree.
    Is there no way to put fencing in that the bandits could not reach through and pull a leg or tail through in a fight at least on the sides of the enclosure teh bandits could get to. I know that would not be idea on the sides where you want them to be able to interact with potential new moms and other monkeys but the bandits don't get to them from that side do they? More like a mesh screening on the walls that the bandits come up to - so that they could still climb on the fencing on the inside, and yes the bandits could sitt scale the mesh I am sure but wire mesh with 1/8th in opening or even smaller would make it nearly impossible for any part of a baby to be pulled through or bitten through. They could still see through it and of course it would allow air through but maybe save a few babies from same nasty bites.
    Do you have much chance to observer babies as they age out in the troop? Have you noticed if great friends in infancy equates to still being so in the juvenile years and, at least with the females, and does it continues on to adulthood or does troop ranking sometimes end up separating friend or when there is a clearer delineation between males and females in adulthood and the friendships were of mixed gender does this server to separate them at this point?
    At the rate Vera is going she may almost be too old to need a foster mom and the way she is rejecting them that may be what happens. It's interesting that the adult females have to know by now that if the enclosure opens up there is a baby inside and if you feel like a mom you better get in there and they are aren't gathering around even to take a look at here. Can she manage without a foster but just many juvenile friends or is there a risk that the adults won'r accept her even if the juveniles have? Maybe is she gets a few good juvenile friends and they are cool with the moms maybe she will be. Maybe Vera is just into being emancipated at a young age and thinks there is no need for a mother figure in her life. Makes you wonder what really did happen to her that she rejects mother to such an extent.

    Kyle, I was reading through the pet ads online a few days ago and someone was trying to regime 4 yo Male vervet. He had been defanged and neutered. They listed him as needing a large enclosure for himself only because he had a nasty disposition. I was thinking yes, I wonder why. I felt so bad for the poor guy. I would get him if I could ship him off to y'all there but, I doubt if I could swing the cost or get the permits for it. I left a comment for the person of what I thought of them, that's all I could do.

No one will recognize me tho because I don't make any comments etc. I just watch the videos and enjoy watching kyle tell the story but I feel like I've been left in the dark!!! Lol I started today's video earlier but got side tracked and when things settled back down and I started watching it again I noticed a conversation going on the left side of the video and realized people were talking about the video etc. I tried to join in but didn't know how. And when I started reading the comments someone said something about the premiere to something???? So I'm just really confused as to what all is going on???? There was obviously a live chat. How did we find out about that? And the premier to.......?? How was that announced??

It is truly disgusting. But baby Lola has no use of her arm and there's bone actually showing. It's been 6 or 7 days. I see this monkey with the cast and cannot help but wish that baby Lola could be helped by you guys. I have no clue how far away you are from her or anything like that but she won't be helped where she is just recorded 24/7 and no help given to her. It's so sad it makes my heart 💔😭
