Much more wholesome to see these incredibly cute baby monkeys growing up in their natural habitat, and not being made to wear stupid clothes, diapers and made to take endless baths using chemicals they’re not accustomed to - this is REAL care for these creatures, as it should be - to just observe from a distance

Many people are not aware of the fact, but it came to the attention of those managing sanctuaries and zoo facilities that had programs where lesser primates we allowed to live in as natural a place as possible if their rehab could not reach a level where they could be released back into the wild, and in many places as possible they allowed at least some breeding to take place as adding young to groups was part of life as much as the living conditions and food that was provided. In many sanctuaries, to avoid over population it was often decided that there would be no extreme measures in place to intervene medically with sickly infants or even those abandoned, allowing the mother or family to manage things as they did in the wild. Over time one thing that weas noticed, at least with those primates that had adjusted to a semi wild life and faired well with being able to breed and give birth and provide and care for young in the same manner as those in the wild, documentation started being kept on just how primate mothers dealt with infants with issues, and what was seen in groups of some primates withsome willingly being allomothers who actually were often seen sharing around between several lactating females the feeding of an abandoned infant and how mothers would deal with ill and premature. Two of the most interesting studies were those of how preemies were handled and how infants born with life threatening or eventually terminal birth defects were cared for impacted care for preemie and sick human infants. It was actually many neinatologist and high level NICUs in several South American hospitals that paid attention and adopted care techniques modeled by many of the new world primates studied in South American sanctuaries. Later on, sanctuaries in the US, Europe, Africa and Asia started documenting similar behaviors in many species of old world primates. One thing that was noticed with premature infants, if they had reached a gestational age where they were viable and had digestive systems mature enough to digest mothers milk, and whose lungs produced enough surfactant so the air sacs in the lungs did not stick closed making breathing impossible, primate mothers could actually bring even a very early preemie through to grow up to be a healthy adult. To do this they made many changes in behavior, including doing things no one realized primates would do, and never saw a mother of a full term primate. Primate mothers of preemies were seen to keep their nipples in their infants mouths at all times, actually taking their teat and putting it back in the infants mouth if it slipped out. Observers eventually realized that preemie primates, like human ones, dud jot latch on well, or even at all and while some would suckle they did not have the energy to suckle for long but keeping a preemie on their teat meant that any suckle would give them milk can between times they suckled, the stimulation of the infants mouth abd tongue allowed caused the teat to leak milk drop by drop continously providing for the infant. As we know milk production in any mammal is stimulated by emptying of the breast and by active suckling. It was noted that mother with a preemie, if there was an older sibling weaned to make room for a new baby was often invited back to nurse and empty the breast the preemie was not attached too. For a mother with no other children and a species or troop that never shares nursing, many preemie mothers had been seen emptying their own breast to keep their milk supply going. It was also noted that Preemie were almost always clutched upright over the mother's stomach, and only moved about when the infant needed its bowels stimulated or needed cleaning from urination. Usually at the that time they documented the mother holding the infant in that upside down position to facilitate hygiene, the mother also was documented patting and massaging the infants back. This was not something mothers with full term infants was seen doing, and eventually it was learned the the mother was doing this to help keep the infants lungs clear as preemies are notorious for having little cough reflex to clear fluid from their lungs. Also, being held upside down caused an infant to have to take deeper breaths as the abdominal contents puts pressure on the diaphragm and this opens the little air sacs in the lungs that may not have opened or had closed. Primates with preemies also are often seen rocking side to side or front to back, and this has actually been proven to hel regulate infant breathing and why incubators or heated beds with rockers were developed. It was also documented that mother's of preemies tend to isolate themselves and the infant, often quickly moving away unless its one of their own children mist likely as primates are interested in infants and will want to try to hold the infant, while the mother wants the infant to remain on her chest, to maintain the correct body temperature as preemie do not regulate their own body temp, and sudden changes in body temp can be detrimental to a premature infant. And the mothers of premature primates seem to understand that their infant is not going to do well with rough play others often try with infants. Some primate species have been noted to actually put on a heavier coat after giving birth prematurely, or growing a thicker thatch of hair across their chest and abdomen. In one study, breast molk samples were analyzed from a mother that delivered a premature infant, barely considered viable according to gestational age. The milk was vety much like colostrum for several days more than would happen with a full term infant,and as the it changed more like a milk it had a much higher calorie count but the milk stayed lower in some if the harder to digest product. Then as the infant grew the milk changed, more from something that was providing easy to digest energy to nutrients for growth and adding a good fat layer and promoting development of other systems. Many of the things that they started doing with preemies and sick infants from doing skin to skin to help regulate body temp, rocking or using rocker beds to help regulate breathing, positioning and massage to help theem clear their lungs and stimulate the taking of deeper breaths, even the make up of preemie formulas and when formula or breast kill is started, come from studying primates with preemies, especially, as primate mothers statistically have a high success rate of bringing preemies through as long a the infant has no other issues except just being born early.

It makes me wonder how much has been missed because of preconceived ideas of the supposed superiority of man. Edit: I came here again to read someone else’s comment and read this article through a second time and am so in awe of monkeys ability to successfully keep preemies alive and well.

Our sweet Pucky, becoming a grown up, time flies. Hope he does well. Being a male rhesus must be difficult. Beautifully done again AM

Thanks to a nurturing mum like Dolly, Pucky survived premature birth and is now an independent young male. Who knows? He might one day be a troop leader. A heartwarming video to watch. Bravo to Pucky, you've come a long way over the last five years! ❤🐒🐒🐒🇬🇧

This is my favorite video of all your videos. Had another monkey been his mom he would not have had a chance of surviving. Dolly is definitely a super Mom!!! He is so unbelievably cute, and sooooo tiny.

That was so lovely. Thank you for showing the macaque in such a nurturing caring way,its so refreshing. You are the best macaque filmer on YT, hands down!!! I get instantly stress out when I accidentally click on one of those Cambodian macaque video. So again, thank you for caring so deeply about these monkey troops and there offspring.

Pucky is my favorite boy. I knew this day would come, but I'm still sad. 😢😭 Please take care of yourself out there, Pucky. 🙏

Such a beautiful story.

I have so dreaded this, Pucky being ousted. I hope he stays where AM can find him and keep us updated on him.

Picky was very attached to his mum, even as he got older. He was always close by and enjoyed his grooming sessions. He was a mamma’s boy. This must be tough for him. Dolly should give lessons on how to be a great mother, she is one of the best mums on that mountain. Ok, she did have a great battle of weaning w/Baty.

40:35 & he's still kneeling down next to his beautiful & loving mother to be groomed/ cherished/ loved & caressed by His Mama!!! How Sweet!!! 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻💛💛🥰💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛✝️✝️✝️💛💛💛💛💛🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰💛

I fell in love with this channel because of Pucky. When I first started watch Mr. AM's video, and before I knew Pucky's story, I mentioned how I thought he was "so ugly" and "Oh my! Everyone started jumping to his defense and explaining what had happened to him, but at the same time "No One" was disrespectful in any way. That is how I got hooked on Mr. AM's channel and fail in love with the monkeys on Monkey Hill. Thanks Mr. AM and everyone on this channel.

Barry is a beautiful male monkey, the red on his eyes make him look exotic!

Tiny was in the first video I saw here. I was hooked!! I love these beautiful creatures and the way you share their lives with us!

Wow!!I've never seen a mom give up food,& /or comfort . I must say, she's being a VERY sweet to her baby, it's endearing to watch. Too bad more moms aren't like this.Check out how baby looks at om when nursing. So much love❤❤ in that little face,, how sweet.

So glad I found your channel; we can learn so much from the monkeys. Mothers who dearly love and others? Very rarely do we see that mothers don’t care for their offspring. Thank you for showing us how this loving mother cares for her Baby

After being involved in the care of missing and abused children for years , I can see these animals make better parents than a lot of humans, the love and pride they have for their little one , always has to be admired, a gift from God to them is a baby , not something to be abused and harmed but loved and cherished.We as humans need to learn the same value of children as they have imo

In his prime, The world is Barry’s oyster!

Thank you so much AM, that was beautifully and sensitively put together. I hope pucky will fair well out in big world without Dolly to encourage and reassure him. Dopey, Tiny and Pucky, underdogs to some but superheros to me and, I'm sure, many others here.

OMG!! I remember him now. 😊 Thank you for your love and dedication to this beautiful monkeys. I sure do appreciate and enjoy your videos…. Seeing these animals in their natural habitats makes me happy… Where’s Tiny? Awwww. It’s been a while since I’ve watched your videos.. due to life… I remember watching when tiny was so TINY and some people came to help feed because Tina 😠 always took his food from his mouth.

What a beautifully crafted narrative on Pucky and Dolly. The love between them is very strong.

Do you ever wonder what they all must say about you? “The man with the beans and yams is here!” Thank you for sharing this small pleasure with us.

Absolutely beautiful ,Thank you for the fantastic stories

I'm glad Pucky didn't lose both sets of canines when he fell.

Now this is how filming should be!! Not disturbing, harassing or interfering!!

There is nothing greater than the love a mother has for her child♥️♥️♥️♥️

I really enjoy watching the little ones finding their feet and exploring playing

Thanks Mr AM! such an awesome storybook of Pucky!

You have presented a great story one of the best. Thank you for sharing your knowledge of these monkeys. I have learned so much. The music you pick really make your stories stand out. I hope you will be able to continue for a long time. Thank you again.

I remember my first video here was when Dopey was just a wee newborn and your videos of him always were entertaining. Reddy was such a caring mom and i remember Dopey's big feet when he was learning to walk lol. Thank you for another beautifully done video. Pucky has always been one of my favorite boys next to Dopey ❤

Pucky, was such a tiny little angel from heaven. Mommy held him to close to her chest feeding him constantly until he could stand on his own. Showing him so much love and affection. They will have a bond that will last forever. God bless them both. 🙏❤

Beautiful beautiful story. That’s what love is all about. ❤❤❤

This is such a sweet heartfelt story.❤

Thank you AM for this sweet video about Pucky. I did not know his story. What a cute and strong little baby he was. It broke my heart to see him so hurt and no front teeth. I hope makes it out there without any major fights.

Your precious presentation along with the music couldn’t be as perfect ❤❤❤❤

How lovely and touching!❤🙏 thanks a lot for honouring the monkey souls! Pucky, I wish you a long and happy and healthy life with good compaignon!

What a beautiful dedication to Pucky. Well done. And now Dolly has her little girl

Always very bittersweet when the boys grow up, their coming of age period is chaotic and it's the reason that on average the females have longer lifespans than the males, some boys just don't make it. Not all sad though. Vast majority of the time they end up in the bachelor troops with older brothers and old playmates, they have better lives there because the older boys are very fair and understand the struggle. It makes me think of Gypsy's boys who all joined the same bachelor troop, they're pretty much stuck together like glue and extremely protective of each other. I do hope for the best for Pucky, it looks like he's already been accepted into a bachelor troop and we can assume that his brother Bocky is nearby and his little brother Spikey will join him sometime next year. Even if he can't defend himself well, he'll never be alone if he sticks with them.

What a beautiful video AM. Good old Pucky, such a trooper! And what can we say about his mum Dolly? Just glorious, like Reddy.

Aww looks like Pucky was trying to preoccupy his brothers so he could get more grooming. That all I want for Christmas video for ThE VMF was too cute.

They often get pushed to the periphery of the troop first but not everyone gets that courtesy. It's the high ranking females who make the decision or the alpha female herself but she gets support from all the other females in the troop in her decision making. They chase them away or very clearly point them in the direction of the periphery by showing them aggressively or chasing them or both. It also happens that older males in the troop chase them away but not without the consensus of the alpha female. 🤓🇸🇪
