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.

The narrators voice (female) is so soothing she would be great narrating children’s books. Anyway I love watching these baby monkeys and donate whenever I can. Thank you for all you do.!
If I didn’t live so dang far away I would be there to help all the time! You all would be sick of me. I absolutely adore these little monkeys. I love all of you guys. Thank you for doing what you do to make their world so much better 💛
I'm sorry that I don't remember her name, but the young lady narrating everything has the most lovely and calming voice. I'm sure that's why the baby orphans absolutely adore her, she sounds so soft and very comforting. ♥️
God bless all the volunteers!! You all do so much good.
Amazing video as always, thank you for sharing with us.
I just love seeing these babies getting their second chance at life and seeing them so happy and enjoying their new home and family who welcome them with open arms!!
Thank you, God, for allowing me to see and enjoy these lovely creatures. Thank you for opening hearts and minds to restore the little ones.
Our pleasure!
What a full episode with great footage and commentary! My favourite clip was the ending watching Bisous with the three all cuddled together nicely. Happy little family 🐒🤗
Glad you enjoyed it!
DO YALL GIVEN THE MONKEY A BATH ARE WHAT ...
I'm really sorry that all these uncontrollable setbacks are happening to you at the VMF. You are such a WONDERFUL foundation. You certainly don't deserve all these negative events in the past year+!! 😣😷 Please hang in there, things Will get better! 🙏💗
Really enjoyed as always. Thank you
April made such great progress in a short period.
Each and everyone of you at the monkey Foundation I pray for you each day I love everyone of you, and may God bless you you are definitely a blessing from God
You are so kind
Staff: Breathe, think one day at a time, and know you are all loved!! You do the impossible when the possible is not an option!! Thanks for the update for it means the world to us! One of my favorite part is when the three babies where all french kissing each other at the same time! Blessings ~Sidney
17:12 , sooooo cute sitting up like a little person 😅 I am so in love with these monkeys, you guys do an amazing job! Also listing to the accents did I detect a N.Ireland accent? 😊😊😊
I don't know why but to me it is so cute to watch them eat. So precious
I know ! Especially if it’s something noisy like bananas , and it’s totally quiet otherwise. Music to my ears .
It's so sweet seeing these little ones greet each other so tenderly
Well, the VMF team has done it once again, despite all of the rain, last minute orphan arrivals, the enormous shortage of volunteers & precious time. You're all such an AMAZING group and these monkeys are absolutely blessed to have crossed paths with you, we all know what the outcome would have likely been for these poor little guys had they not been brought through to you! 🙏 Thank you all the way from Provo, Utah, USA. 🇿🇦💕🐒❤️🐒💕🇺🇸
Thank you
Humans at our best. We know the worst, good to see some best
These babies are so precious
Please: no apologies for technology or anything else. You are doing an amazing job here, and that's what counts.
One day I really hope to be walking into your sanctuary to meet all of you wonderful people and primates and get put to work!!!
Thanks for all what you are doing for this monkey babies and - kids !
Thanks for watching!
I love all your videos! God bless you all and keep you safe.. I love those babies.🐒🐒🐒🐒🐒🤗🤗🤗💕
God blessed you.🥰🥰
Every creature should have a place in this world and you all are giving these little vervets their place again. God bless, great job, really enjoy your work!
cause their new moms dont produce milk and its essential that they learn where and how to drink milk to survive and they only way we can do that is to teach them to climb of mom when hungry and go to the milk cage
Bless your hearts for your rescue
Thank you for ALL OF THE HARD WORK THIS TEAM PULLS TOGETHER AND SAVES SO MANY MONKEY'S. GOD BLESS YOU ALL
You all are Beautiful!! Id give anything to help feed and give loves.they are so precious with so much personality.lile humans in big way❤❤
Howie and Danny look so relaxed with her and lots of kisses
I LOVE YOU GUYS! Best channel on TH-cam hands down! ♥️💙☮️💟🙏
You guys rock! Keep up the great work!
Babies are like, this dish is broken
She’s so cute I love them all so much I’m so happy There are people like you guys at the VMF taking care of these babies and getting them back to where they should be monkeys and trees I love them so much I want a monkey so bad but I know it’s not right they don’t belong in the house as a pet they belong in the wild with their moms and other monkeys but you guys are doing a great job excellent I can’t even watch the other videos with people taking care of them and dressing them up it’s ridiculous and believe me nobody wants a monkey more than me but I know it’s not right
Your program for cute monkeys is wonderful and run properly I is well run very well
God bless all you kind people God rewards kindness💝💝💝
Little APRIL; I hope you find a good foster mom, who will love you!
If I was many years younger I would be on a plane to go and help these babies. I admire all of you for giving up your way of life to work with the babies and get them into troops where they will get a mom and live the life they should with a troop. God Bless all of you. You should be proud of the work you do.
Me too
I would as well cause I’ve been so...... attached to this series and wonderful channel that always needs volunteers
I would be a volunteer.
It’s never too late. I’ll be 57 when I go this Fall.
@@BBB-rd2qi Wow. Good for you. When you go, hope you have a safe trip and enjoy your time there.
Do they take donations and if so what is the name and address to send donations to and what country and zip? Do they take credit cards or debit cards? It sounds like they are down on their luck, I just started reading these comments and I have never seen these kind of monkeys before but I would like to donate a little if it will help some, every little bit helps.
we certainly do you can find the variouse options on this page: vervet.za.org/donate/
And I can tell you that EVERY part of that dollar goes to the monkeys care... I volunteer there annually (been 2x) and it truly makes a difference!!!!
29:24 Their all licking the juice off each other’s lips 😂😂
I hope the rain will stop soon, so this babies can find their foster moms !
Oh that's heartbreaking seeing the little go through that.
I wanted to say ty for what everyone does for these monkeys your the only monkey channel I watch now the ones I used to watch the Vos recording them r very abusive to the mother n babies it's awful❤❤❤ I'm Jody from the USA Cape Cod Mass here
I wonder if sometimes it might take folks a few days to be able to travel to bring little baby to you guys. It’s so sad to think of her being so sad.
They had the little girl that came today for months. Didn’t give her away until the biting started.
WoW... Did catch that at the end, where Acorn was telling the other one, firm but gently, to stay back?? Now that was interesting! I just love watching your Videos! ❤
Each monkey is so unique
I like this episode a lot, that is why I am watching it again with pleasure...
Monkey kisses!!! touching noses!!!
I’ve never seen them drink from each other’s mouths before like this. That was so cute.
Welcome sweet April you are in great hands, hope you are doing better. We all 💜you. You would think the people in the neighborhood would be educated by now to give these babies up as soon as they get them. Confusing why they don’t 🤔 I love the shots of the monkeys jumping on the camera girl.
Aww can I come work with you guys? 🥲 so nice to see this. The proper way to help these orphans
I did know, that the little monkey would like Ginger Tea - they "know" what is good for health...
You called Donnie she comes down
The new monkey is big.
Good to see rains there - more like it was before the years where there was not enough rain, or pretty much none. Of course the years without rain did probably help introductions as there were less interruptions, but as a whole these rains are good for the whole country - except they had to return in a year that is also still run amok with Covid, leading to staffing issues. I wonder if this is just an odd year that rains are back or if this means, like in other places the droughts have broken? If so, is there a way to roof over the intro cages so that introductions can go on in a dry environment even if its wet every else, so that there would not have to be breaks and the a step back to have to re-introduce everyone? I expect there maybe a ways to interest state side providers to donate roofing materials.
Heart breaking for foster mommy , to lose a baby. ❤❤
I live in the US, watching the babies to overcome their problems is amazing, especially when they comfort in their friends , the foster family puts their arms around the babies, and holds them so tight.
Its so funny when human imitate the lipsmack haha,i hope it works and they understand haha
Dear Dave, It is good and important that you keep emphasizing that humans should not keep monkeys as pets and that once humans find and adopt a baby monkey they should not keep it for too long...You justify all this well and detailed!
I posted my comment before I even saw this video and the video is talking to the woman about what they belong with other monkeys and rehabilitated I love them so much I wish I can volunteer but I live in New York they they don’t have a place that you can volunteer for monkey least that I know of I would do it in a minute I always wanted a monkey since I’m a kid but I know they don’t belong with people these are the videos they show these people making them walk on two legs and making them do tricks and torturing them just for food and then when they get bigger they don’t want them anymore because they’re like cute and they dump them somewhere and they have no monkey skills it’s just so sad believe me I love them so bad I would want to monkey my whole life but I know it’s not correct to keep them as a pet I know that I would volunteer there any place in New York or New Jersey that they have any places like that that you could volunteer to rehabilitate the monkeys?
cute baby monkey
Huge thank you for all of the hard work and dedication from the whole team! Quick question - I think you mentioned that some of the babies were making "play faces" and I wondered what that looked like.
Hi! I'm another member like you, but after 14 months of quarantine I've had lots of time to watch these films. Season one, episode 1: th-cam.com/video/leqlAqFKqII/w-d-xo.html
@@carolynmcpherson2667 Thank you for sharing this clip - I now understand! Will check out more of these earlier clips. So cute and informative 😍❤
I'm new and absolutely am amazed and grateful for the work you do! If I ever move out of my country or if I ever get the chance to travel id totally volunteer! I found this channel bc of seeing the videos of the macaque monkeys but in a couple views I realized how horrible their situation is. And was happy to know that the one guy who left said he might try to go to Cambodia.
P.S I was cracking up when I saw the new monkey jump to you lol!
Can anyone tell me which video it is where a female comes in to the intro enclosure, immediately scoops up 3 babies, and runs on her back legs to the door trying to take them out? I've been looking for it for days and can't find it again.
it sounds like Skunkey enclosure but not sure yet of the episode
Not sure of the location of that particular episode, but I'm pretty sure that was Mrs. Gold, who had a baby hanging from her belly, one on her back, and one holding onto her tail (as I remember.)
@@carolynmcpherson2667 I'm sorry, it's a different one. This female was new to being a foster mom and was very excited. She grabbed all three babies up in her arms as son as she came inside and ran on her hind legs to the door, but she wasn't let out with them because they were still too young.
@@VervetMonkey I've been rewatching from the very beginning and can't find it. I have a friend who is dying to see that part because of how funny and adorable it sounded to her.
I wish I could help - but the amount of footage I have makes it even harder for me, hopefully someone here can remember
You can have some of our rain , it rains every day over here, we get too much over here, Louisiana, USA
Does the mother/child bond with the foster mother last for a lifetime, or is the association looser?
with the females yes males no
Love to see a little baby named Shirley.
Even so , even after he was so clearly saying that it’s much better to leave him with the VFM , the older woman kept saying , “ unfortunately we can’t keep him … “ . Must be frustrating , eh ?
Are any of the foster mums more apt to pick a female over a male or vice versa when they choose a baby to foster?
I think it goes more on dependance
Έχουν ομωρφη κι αγαπημένη παρέα χαίρωμε γι αυτό
Congratulations on reg. In usa 🇺🇸 ♥
Thank you!!
I would love to be a mom for a girl baby❤
How much does a newborn baby monkey weigh? Also, do you receive these babies from passerby's that see the mum is dead? Do they bring them to you to raise, and what is their survival rate?
they are variouse weights from mamybe 150g, no we recieve them from variouse places from farmers that have shot the mother, from people who pick them up after car accidents, confiscations by the authorities, from people who find them after they shot with airrifles in the towns - they bring them to us as we a registered sanctuary, probably a 95% survival rate
29:06 we have a little monkey embarrassed by its messy mouth.
Lindos ❤️❤️❤️
8:55 refill please? Lol
When you say don't keep any kind of primate as a pet, do you mean humans too?
yes that would include humans
Perhaps if you are truly confused as to why these nice people would hold onto a cute little baby monkey baby instead of taking it to the shelter, your role might stretch to include community outreach/education. "An ounce of prevention..." It could only help to create and distribute a simple "what to do and why" educational flyer and email it to your partners in the communities you commonly recover the babies from (example: the golf course etc). No, I don't think these caring people mean to create an additional separation trauma for these babies, they simply do not know and would certainly support the right thing to do if given the chance. Just a few thoughts from someone that truly loves your organization!!! You all do wonderful work!!! I wish so much I could be there too!!! Thanks for everything you do! 💜
yea because we dont do that
First time I've seen one have a fit about a certain bottle or because they wanted more. What a drama queen. Reminds me of those LTM when its weaning time.
What is the orange drink? Carrot juice?
yes
Are there any other channels you can recommend, where the monkeys are treated humanely or where they are observed but not humanized?
Im not sure, personally I have not looked for other channels, takes quiet a bit of time doing the video's for this one
There are videos of sanctuaries for orangutans and chimpanzees. I have seen a few of them. I do not know the channel names or how often they post videos.
look up orangutan jungle school... im pretty sure its on the smithsonian channel... they have some interesting videos, but nothing as Great and Epic as to what this channel offers
@@themrs.candyseflagler3022 Thank you. That is the name of the few that I have seen. You are correct about the content. Not as in depth as the VMF. But it is adorable watching the babies being taught how to be apes and learn to climb, etc.
Thank You!
Do the vervet monkeys have the cheek pouch like some of the other monkeys?
yes
Their tails are oversized for their bodies. Are these some of the largest tailed monkeys?
Monkeys with the largest tails.
Se podría adoptar a un monito de esto si es así contestarme para poder contactar con ustedes muchas gracias
It’s not good , in fact very bad , for monkeys to be kept as pets by humans ! They explain very clearly why in this video . It’s not good for humans as the babies get older but it’s ESPECIALLY bad for the monkeys . They suffer terribly . This foundation ONLY takes in monkeys that have lost their mothers and then introduces them very carefully to a MONKEY foster mother . Monkeys should ONLY be with monkeys . Anything else is animal cruelty .
50:20 to the end is the best
Does the troop have their own babies? I’ve watched a bunch of videos and have never seen a baby that came from the troop. Do you spay the females?
vasectomise the males
How can you differentiate them,they all look the same to me
takes time
I just couldn't watch the people taking them as pets and forcing them to behave as human babies. So cruel, they say they are kind to them. I don't see anything but sadness, they need to be as god intended.
Εδώ Μάλιστα έχουν υποδομή .Αιχμαλωσία μεν ορφανά δε αλλά ζουν με προδιαγραφές καλύτερες από τα σπίτια που τα εκμεταλευτεται αλλιώς,
και τα κακομεταχειριζονται αφού δεν έχουν τον τρόπο ούτε το χρόνο ούτε τι διάθεση.
Why aren't u giving them water??
because there are millions of thirsty children without water in Africa and we need to give it to them
Why so many orphans
?
A dzieci sieroty nie ma kto przytulić.
Is there a donation amount to name one? How does it work?
Yes, I did it earlier this year. You donate $150 USD to their PayPal. Mention the name in the donation and they'll email you with a confirmation 😊
Thank you!
If you name a baby you will be gratified to see that all the staff use that name. It's another bit of attachment between our world and the vervet world and it feels good.
Yes I volunteer with them once a year, their names are the easiest way to track them! And they will even confirm how to pronounce the name properly for the videos... plus you get a nice certificat too 😃
@@lb3426 Once a year! I'm so jealous 😁 I was there in September 2019, and I'm trying to see if I can manage volunteering once more, perhaps next year.
WHY did they keep the monkey for 14 days ? it breaks my heart when people don`t are able to think.And they probably lied about how long they had her . I hope you are ashamed
At least in the end, they did the right thing. They probably wanted to keep it and realized, 'this is a lot of work'. She is where she needs to be now.
I'm curious, Is there anything you would be able to do to help a monkey that has floating limb syndrome if you had gotten one.
Im sure there would be
Well have you watched any of the videos of stupid people that mistreat them and treat them as pets and get hit and worse how do ya feel about that and why that y'all are rescue do anything about these dum people keeping them as pets and abusing them.
Yes, Dani DEFINITELY needs to learn some lessons from BOTH foster mom's and caregivers! I would probably thunk Dani in the nose for being aggressive and biting, if he bit me for NO REASON 😕
Ugh! Get off it. That’s why they are the experts and not you! You only think of yourself and not the animal. As I told you previously, biting serves an important purpose within the Troop!
@@BBB-rd2qi excuse me...are you talking to me?🖕
@@BBB-rd2qi Biblically, "Man" reigns over ALL the Earth; ANIMALS included. I know more than you "think" I do, about Primates; been studying them a LONG time; I "get" that you're not reading the Bible; well "I" DO, and you know NOTHING about me; I may be a "Christian," but I'm not a "stupid" one. Some People think we're stupid; well, I've got News for ya!🤗😉✝️✝️✝️.......
They should not be allowed to bite
They are wild animals! They do not want to humanize them. Biting within the Troop serves as an important skill to have!
@Sienna Dark SHHHH! 😂
Let the rats go play with dogs or maybe a nice swim in a deep lake
Scotto wrong group these are monkeys - just type I love rats in the search and you should find a home
@@VervetMonkey Well said, VMF person. The comments section is mercifully free of tough talking trolls. I liked the way you respectfully but firmly moved this one on. Your code of respect for all sentient beings extends even to trolls.
