I'm not crying. You're crying. ❤❤❤ What a fantastic ending of Idris' journey. Thanks to everyone.

Amazing dedication from the volunteers!

This is 100% my favorite Vervet Forest story. It broke my heart to see her so scared at first and running to be with humans.. your teams hard work and dedication to giving her the best life possible warmed my heart right back to being whole. So so incredibly happy for her. Thank you for all you do!!

Poor monkey . People just don't understand . If you love the monkey . Don't keep as pets !!!! Even us humans , need our own kind ..all animals do ..I'm so happy she found a family 👪 😭 💓 ❤ 💗 💕 Perfect choice for her..I wish a long happy life for her with James troop .. you guys do an incredible job, again thank you for educating me.

SO happy to see Eliza's transformation! She really came around.

Kyle, Eliza had excellent odds of being integrated with a troop because of VMF. Thanks to all of you who work long tiring hours for the love of these monkeys. Epic job of getting Eliza habituated to her new troop.

Thank you very much Xena, everyone who worked to get her integrated did an amazing job and had incredible patience.

Gosh that had to be hard when she would cry for humans not to go scoop her up poor baby was so scared I’m glad to see her not so scared anymore I am so glad to see her adjust & doing so well with the troop. That’s to funny that the guys who had her thought she was a male silly guys hu. Thank You for the video can’t wait for the next one❣️

Thank You so much for sharing your stories about these babies.At first the stories start out sad and then in the end,the stories turn out to be a successful happy ending.All of you make it happen to give all of these fur babies a second life to be able to enjoy the rest of their lives.And these babies probably never got to see or be a monkey and enjoy themselves until all of you made it happen for them to enjoy life again.💗😊💗😊💗

I love your videos. All episodes I have watched so often during the last year. They helped me through a deep crise in life. Thank you so much from Germany. This is a very great job at the sanctuary and you all do it with your whole heart. That comes over in the videos to me. It must be a great emotion to have one tiny baby in the arms. They are so beautiful and helpless. Thank you for giving them their second chance. Sorry for bad english.

I can 't image how difficult that must have been for her, even if she hadn't been humanized it wouldnt have been quite as bad but still difficult. Great videoI am glad she is happy and finally with a troop of monkeys where she belongs :)

For Eliza its just little by little day by day! Good call on setting her up with the smaller troop, Im so glad she finally graduated! ❤🙊🙉🙈

Hi Kyle and the rest of the volunteers is so nice to see a new video and Eliza is so precious and I’m so happy for her. I love you guys and the work that you do for this precious monkeys is amazing. Hope to see you soon ❤️❤️😘😘🙂

Encouraging to see the healing process.

You are good people the monkeys are free like natural life and happy😇💖💖💖💖💖oll the money for you from the plataforms💖

She is SO stinking ADORABLE!

Eliza is a doll. I love her like I do all of the monkeys. Watching them is so darn entertaining and enjoyable. I wish you guys could give them the good traits of both humans and monkeys. The monkeys would probably have more good ones than the humans. lol God made them how he wanted them though, so I'll just watch. Thanks guys.

I'm learning as cute as monkeys are and as sweet as they are with humans it's very selfish of us to have them as pets. They need and deserve to be with their own. Seeing Eliza transition to being with all the other monkeys was fascinating. Thank you for sharing.

What an amazing story. Eliza is going to be just fine now and her past abusive situation may not be forgotten but it's a thing of Eliza past just like many humans who have survived abuse as a child .

Shows you the calming effect parent figures have on primates. Mothers are a massive source of physical comfort and security, and they allow primates to explore novel and scary situations.

You guys are super in tune with these monkeys. What other rescue centers and channels on here would not go through this much work and thinking outside the box to solve the issues these vervets come in with. Not only physical but emotional as well. You didn't give up on Eliza and keep her solitary the rest of her life. You kept trying with putting the least amount of stress on her, until something clicked, and worked. Amazing to see that. Thank you

Alizas case is a perfect example that each one of them is different and sometimes requires different ways of helping them back into being a monkey again. And because there is such things like the foundation they are able to make special arrangements like this one , being sure not to rush or force anything because there is no reason too and as long as they are making progress witch she was the right thing to do is let her make her own decisions at the right time for her. And when its done right , like so , you and the monkey reaps the benefits. Now this monkey that was once seemed to be unable to be reintroduced back into a monkey life is now living the best one it can. It truly is a beautiful thing. As well as what the foundation does. Think about all the monkeys that come thru just their doors , now imagine if there was no foundation. Where would those monkeys be. Probably not alive. It also shows just how incredibly resilient , strong and capable these creatures are. They blow my mind with each and every new case that arrives. Coming back from brain damage , Lims amputated , broken bones , diseases and everything in between. To the foundation I hope you guys know what an amazing job you guys are doing for this species and how much we all appreciate it , and that goes for you too mr.cameraman. without you there would be no way for any of us to know and appreciate it all. Keep doing what you guys are doing.

Look at all of the painstakingly difficult work (but in the end, soo gratifyingly amazing, I'm sure!) that these awesome ppl did, integrating a wild animal that has been uprooted from its kin, raised a world away, as a pet ,with humans. Then, after the animal has build up trust, gotten use to a daily routine/habits, etc. she just gets tossed away like effn' garbage. It has outgrown the cutesy, helpless baby stage, and its more than you thought you could handle, its quite rambunctious, etc. Its a fkn animal, of course its rambunctious & WILD!!! omfg!!! THIS MAKES ME SOO IRATE!!! But look how long it took for her to get back into that mentality, that whole process took a while. That was soo tedious, but thank god for these ppl. And for others that care enough to do this kind of work, it is amazing. Animals become family, and family is for life. Certain animals aren't even meant to be pets. Don't ruin their lives just for your sick, spoiled twisted pleasures. Thank you to everyone that is involved in supporting nature conservation & the preservation & protection of animals, nature (fauna/flora, etc.) Animals & their ecosystems are going extinct, we must all do our part.

Wow , incredible work...good job people . Good for eliza...

I love how she trusted you so much based on where she came from. So happy that you were there for here. I wonder why the change in enclosures made a difference??

I know water is probably an issue but that container was not large enough. I would be willing to bet the babies would enjoy water if they had the chance but this part of South Africa is arid☹

Kyle this was a great video. It is great to see how patient the staff at the VMF is with the young monkeys you are trying to rehabilitate into a new home. It must be especially difficult with a baby who grew up almost her entire life only knowing humans. In Eliza's case she was lucky that she was apparently kept by humans who did not abuse her. Do you see Eliza now and then in her troop enclosure? After a year has she integrated well. I wonder if the older babies like Eliza really do not bond tightly to an adoptive mom as they are not dependent on them for milk and she was old enough to forage and eat food you provide.

“A very thorou butt grooming” 😆😂🤣

I hope, Eliza is still happy in James Troop.

you do realize she's laying in that container saying ewww, ewww, ewww.

Love 💕

Are there just some monkeys who are so humanized that they can’t integrate with a troop ? What happens to them ? I think especially of monkeys who were You Tube stars and who have so much psychological baggage
