I am soooo jealous! But as someone who is severely disabled I learn so much from videos like this. These monkeys are just so beautiful.
This was the purest, most beautiful documentary of any animal I’ve ever seen. I literally cried at their kinship especially when the mom lost the poor baby that was so sad to see. They are really special creatures next to panda this has to be my new favorite creature. 🐒🐾🐾

@@joelmolina3647 I'm honestly confused why people believe monkeys cry during events like these. I'm one of the biggest advocates for canceling specisism and acknowledging other animals as equals (or better in many cases) with/than humans. However, monkeys aren't physically built to cry with emotional overload like humans do. They can "cry" with eye irritation or illness, but you won't be seeing really any primate other than humans crying purely with emotion. I do agree that it was very telling seeing that mother at a lose for what to do with herself. Like that feeling you get when you're truly lost and feel hopeless, and you don't know what to do with yourself or your hands. It's so sad.... It looked to me like baby fell or was crushed by an adult somehow. Poor baby. Edit: grammar mistake fixed
They have such strong bonds and they look after each other so well, protecting the little ones from the coldest temperature, walking like humans in order not to freeze their hands. Very intelligent and empathic monkeys. What a lovely family 💖
