Monkey Matters Primate Rescue Centre - Education & Rehabilitation
We care for orphaned or injured Ver

Monkey Matters is an organization dedicated to helping the public resolve issues regarding conflicts between human and non-human primates. We will rescue any injured, orphaned or displaced SA primate. Those that are healthy, but cannot be released back to where they were found, will be sent to Riverside Wildlife, in Limpopo for rehabilitation. There are no reputable rehabilitation centers in the Eastern Cape for rehabilitation and troop-forming.

Nicky 🩵
I am a very gentle soul and have only started to settle down over the past couple of days 😔
He wouldn't take a bottle at all and had to be syringe fed to keep his hydration up and keep him alive. We kept on trying, and finally, after 5 days, he latched and is now drinking like a champion. He is happier, more content, and starting to enjoy life again 🩵

Nina 🩷
This little girl was kept as a pet in dire circumstances. We managed to arrange for one of our contacts close by to help her, and fortunately, she was successful. Lisa, Thank you for all you did for Nina, it is really appreciated.
She is full of beans now she is with the others and plays up a storm with Neil 🐒😊 she is the sweetest little girl with so much love to give ❤️

Neo 💙
This tiny tot is Neo, he was found crying alone on a farm, the people left him for about an hour watching to see if his mamma would come but she never did 💔 he arrived a few days ago and is about a week old. He is drinking well and is a strong little champ. He spends most of his time with Nathan as Neil and Nevi are too busy for him 🐒 😊

Nevaeh 💔
We received an urgent call regarding a baby monkey, who was badly dehydrated and malnourished due to a person holding onto her and not having a cooking clue how to feed or care for a monkey, so basically being selfish and starving this poor baby!! We rushed out and got the baby and tried all we could to save her, but severe malnutrition and dehydration had already taken its toll 😔
PLEASE, if you find injured or orphaned primates, do the right thing and call us. Call people who know what they are doing instead of being selfish and actually doing more harm than good!
I'm so sorry we didn't get to you sooner, little one 💔🐒

Neil 💙
This little boys mommy was shot 💔 fortunately he was saved before anything happened to him. He is a spunky little boy who has settled beautifully with the other babies and loves to play 🐒 his porridge is the high light of his day and he makes sure to get it all over his face 😊

13/11/2024

We would like to take this opportunity to say a huge THANK YOU to those who support us and contribute to our cause, it is really appreciated more than you know ❤️ to those who give goodies for the babies, once off donations and the monthly contributors you guys are awesome and help us to do what we do better
THANK YOU 🐒

Nathan 💙
The boys are dominating this year. Nathan was found alone on a farm, well that's what we were told 💔 only a few days old, weak and fragile.
After a few days of warmth, love, care and the correct nutrition he has grown stronger and the life is back in his eyes 🐒 he is a littly so has mini social dates with Neville who has reached the tantrum milestone 🙌 all Babies are doing well. Will share some clips of them soon 😊

I am Nelson 🩵🐒
And he owns it 😁 his mom was caught in a snare and died 😔 luckily he was saved and arrived a few days ago. He is an energizer bunny and has settled beautifully.
Please remember the sooner they are brought to us the better, holding on because they are cute can be very detrimental to any primate. It may seem like you are helping, but in fact, you are making things worse for them. All the changing hands and diet changes are no good, and they belong with their own kind. Monkeys are not babies and do not belong in nappies. Please do the right thing.

Neville 🩵
This little boy lost his mom when she was hit by a car 😔 he has a little cut on his head but is doing well. He is about a week old and is missing his mom 💔
Thank you to the caring Vets who helped him and swiftly sent him to us to join the other orphans. He has settled well 🐒🩵

Noah update 🩵
This little boy is doing so well and is passing all milestones beautifully 😊 he does have companionship, and we will post about that soon 😉
We have been busy with many callouts and MVA's, but fortunately, a quiet baby season so far, I just hope it's because they are safe and sound with their mommies 🙏🐒

Noah 🩵
First vervet rescue of the season, this little boys mom was caught in a fence and couldn't escape 😌 the landowner found the dead mom and baby.
He is a few days old and is a little bundle of love ❤️ he is drinking well and has finally stopped crying for his mom 💔
Please, if you see a dead primate on the road or path check and make sure there is no baby around 🙏

It is that time of year again, where babies and juveniles are injured or orphaned.
Please call us: injured primates, orphaned primates, or knowledge of primates being kept illegally as pets. 🐒 Vervet monkeys & baboons are often hit by cars, attacked by dogs, or shot by humans. In this event, please call us so we can assist with attending to injured or orphaned primates.

Naomi 🩷
This little girl was kept as a pet in a township from just a small tot. She is quite skinny and very nervous 😌
It took some pressure, but they agreed to surrender her, and she is now safe with us 🐒

Nigel 🩵
This little boy was confiscated as he was being kept tied up in a township. 😔 he has a sore hand and foot which is being treated and healing slowly but slowly but surely. Very sad little boy who will need some time trust again 💔

Meet Never 💙 He will NEVER be subject to confinement in horrible conditions, NEVER be captive by humans, and NEVER have to worry about his future or safety again. He was confiscated by SAPS and SPCA Uitenhage after a raid on a property. The "owner" said he was the only one who could handle him as he is very aggressive. Well, the "owner" is now in hospital after being attacked by NEVER. As you can see in the clip, he is the softest, sweetest soul who just needs love and safety. He is now safe and sound and enjoying his life 💙🐒 #monkeymatters #monkeymatterseasterncape #primaterescue #primaterescueeasterncape #primateconservation #nomorecages
