Brutus has since been poisoned. I think Achap is king? Also baby Lori is Amari’s youngest daughter, recently hurt by a human. It was really sad, she could barely move it looked like she had a concussion and I believe her right leg is also damaged. The story is that her and some other monkeys were on a mans motorcycle and playing with his phone and/or other electronics. When he noticed he came to shoo them away carrying a stick (looked like a baton possibly) and hit baby Lori. She was taken by a vet (they had to trick Amari with food) has since been rereleased, and is with her mother. Fingers crossed. Not sure what other changes.

Only one thing about the rank, Maria is next after Dolly, her rank is higher than Popeye. I have a suspicion that she, too, is Amari’s daughter, she and Jill look so muh alike…unlike any of the others. That also would explain Amari’s fondness for Kari, the way Amari let her get by with things (her granddaughter). Kari also is a rescuer…she takes baby monkeys that are in trouble away from the punishment, and she doesn’t get attacked.

I recently discovered these monkeys having come across them accidentally one day on youtube. I had been watching a video about a little monkey from China called HuaHua who is a pet of a trainer who I thought was abusing her,making her walk upright and dressing her like a little doll. The auto play started by showing a video of Daniela being kidnapped from Dana by Deedee and dragged by her tail a long way. I was shocked by what I saw and decided to play the next video of her yet again being hurt this time it was Dana who was biting her and refusing her milk.
I wanted to find out more about Daniela and this troop of monkeys and that’s when I got hooked on following them and have been ever since.
When I discovered Daniela was murdered I was sad because she had captured my heart,that brave and fiesty little Macaque. I wondered why deedee had abused her each and every day, the hate seemed to border on insanity.
Dana pissed me off because I watched as deedee and others abused that baby and she did nothing apart from sit on her rump, calming, chewing her cud like a cow. She is one of the more attractive of the troop though and I likened her to be like the troop tart who became a teenage mother who hates the fact that it has tied her down lol… I have not yet watched any of the video showing deedee since she gave birth to her first,so I sure do hope she is kinder to her own than she has been to her poor hostages.
I want to ask a question as i am not as clued in yet as those who have been following these monks for a while. What age are the females on average when they start to mate and get pregnant? I am sure I read somewhere that one was about 6 years old in our years when it first got pregnant.

Dolly and Dee Dee are the least promiscuous in the group. They mate only with the alpha male. Unfortunately, I don’t think some people understand what promiscuous means in the context of animal sexual behavior.
The Amari troop has one promiscuous female and that is Popeye. None of Popeye s offspring were stored by the troops alpha male. There is some suspicion that Shitpig is the result of Popeye mating with her brother. Shitpig has numerous autosomal recessive traits. Autosomal recessive disorder are always the result of brother sister mating.

I always had the notion that if not all, most of Popeye’s offspring are from Felix. Sweetpea looks a lot like him. I had read and I think that Popeye’s mom was Lucy. They had almost the same face. I have read that some Lucy’s sons could be Loki, Chimo, and somewhere I read even Skippy, current leader of the troop. I saw a video in which Skippy was running after Popeye, and then suddenly, Lucy run and attack him! So he could leave Popeye alone. Could be possible that Skippy and Popeye were brothers, and Lucy warned her son not to mount his own sister? Who knows.

Hi Sherry,
Oh! The names are in red because they are clickable. All names that are red I’ve added a bit of information about that particular monkey along with ways to identify them from other monkeys.
The families are left to right, so for Amari, her family is Lori, Jack, Jace, and Jill. They are all related to each other.
I’m working on a more potentially in-depth family tree for connections between the females. It’s really difficult to tell who is related to who especially in these troops.
I’m glad you’re enjoying the site! I try to update it when I can with relevant information.

Hello Quimmbly, All the females are related somehow down the line. I started watching these primates when Sochhun first started to video. It was believed by the majority of us Ol timers, that Popeye was Amari’s sister, of course Amari being the youngest making her Alpha, due to their behaviors and interactions. And we still believe so. In any event they are all related somehow down the line. Unless you have a DNA kit I don’t think anyone will ever know 100% who ranks where. Even Sochhun is unsure at times and he’s been videoing for some time and interacts with these primates. For example Sasha. Sasha is a toss up between Merri and Popeye on who her mother is.
Great job on your website! Must have taken a great deal of time and effort!

It is against the law for the VOs to remove, or interfere with the monkeys,in any way. These laws are strict, in response to monkeys and other animals being poached, to the extent that some species are now endangered. According to the laws in Cambodia, all wildlife is protected, and by law, they are only supposed to film them (and they can feed them).
Besides that, what Dolly and DeeDee do is instinctual. Including what DeeDee is doing – it is called “allomothering,” she just happens to be particularly bad at it. We may not like it, but we can’t impose our human standards of behavior on the monkeys. Monkeys be jerks. 😉 Cindy

Old world monkeys are most difficult to document, when it pertains to family tree.
Too many unseen visitors during the nightime hours, and a lack of loyalty makes this a guessing game. (Even if you visit a particular troop daily to video tape them)
True DNA testing is the only way of knowing just who fathered each offspring.
There are much more “half” brothers and sisters than actuual lineage of a current alpha. As far as knowing which females are true sisters, one must locate an individual or group of people old enough to have visited a grouping of long-tailed macaques back to 1990. Then, combined theories can mesh to get some better “IDEAS” on monkey sisters and or brothers. All would still be speculation though-
As DNA tests would make this accurate. Just enjoy these primates, and work towards preservation. Any human being that can smack a baby girl macaque with a stick, baton, or whatever, while visiting her domain, has no SOUL, No testicles, and most likely was and still is the same big PUSSY he has always been! Lori has permanent damage that is obvious. All the other monkeys that are in her life (including AMARI), can feel Loris lack of stability and abilities to perform the most basic of monkey actions daily. Lori will not make it to adulthood because of this inhumane man that hurt her. He deserves to go to HELL!
God bless all long-tailed macaques, and all endangered primates left on this earth.
Mankind is to blame for the extinctions of these awesome creatures.

I believe the older females are likley sisters. Obviously the oldest sister is Amari followed by Pop Eye and Dolly. The other females are probably offspring of these three. (The eldest is Tima, obviousy, and I don’t have a clue or any openion about her other than she is sad and lonley.) If P.E. was a lower rank than Dolly she would dare fight her were Polly is concerned. Dolly may apears to be dominate, however, she is a bully as are her offspring… Danaa, Sasha and DeDe.

Popeye is definitely lower-ranked than Dolly. She may resist when Dolly is pulling at Polly, but that really doesn’t mean she is equal rank. The whole time, she is grimacing like “please don’t kick my ass” lol. But, there are plenty of times when Dolly does bite her. Her rank is the reason why she puts up with so much crap from DeeDee, and when she did actually warn DeeDee, and fight her a bit, the other day, guess what happened? Jack jumped on her, and Dolly got her BAD. She won’t overstep again, for a while, anyway. Not trying to be mean, or anything, but it does take more than a few months of watching, to really get an accurate picture of the troop’s dynamics, because they are fluid at times due to different factors, such as Ashley gaining rank because she is the alpha male’s favorite. As far as “kidnapping,” look up “allomothering.” There is a lot of information out there. Happy Watching! 😊

I have been researching thus troop, and talking to individuals who have lived in Cambodia, and watched these Angkor Wat monkeys, for decades. I am still piecing it together, but this is what I have found out, so far:
Amari started her own troop, pre-2008. There are several versions about how this came to be – and my personal hypothesis is that Amari is a released pet, with a strong personality. She looks like the long tails in Thailand, not the Cambodian ones. Anyway, poaching was out of control, pre-2008, and monkeys got scattered, trying to escape poachers (Cambodia has made very strict laws regarding tampering with wildlife, in response). Old-time watchers say Lucy and Tima came from Carbzilla troop. I am not sure about where they originated from, but Amari, Lucy, and Tima formed their own troop, with Amari as alpha. Those three are the mothers of the rest of the troop adult females. Amari’s daughters are Dolly (that is why she is alpha, now), Maria, and Jill. Lucy is Popeyes mom, and Tima is Merry, and Dana’s mom. Yes, I know, it flies in the face of everything you believe, as far as lineage, I was the same way at first…but, after researching, and talking to others who have researched, it makes sense. Check into it, yourself.

Hey ya , Quirky chick, Yes i am a new account, But a long time viewer and visitor. Just going back on the subject of Dana and Merri being her Mum, There is a problem with that, On my Chanel i have these video’s so easily looked at, and i have started a discussion. However, In 2013 Tima in a video with Merri are showing 2 babies, Tima has the Girl and Merri has a boy.
In 2014 Merri had a girl as did Tima. and in 2015 Merri had a boy, Which we all know as Drew.
The boys either side of Merri having (Assumed Sasha), There really is no time for Merri to have had Dana either before Sasha or after Sasha.
Merri would have had to have given birth to Dana when she was in fact pregnant with the Boys.We know Sasha and Dana were born 2014, Due to the footage of them as Juvies and both giving birth for the 1st time within a couple of months of each other,to Donny and Jessie. Like i said on one of the video’s, There is no way Dana nor Sasha hid from a rampant Male for a year to avoid pregnancy.
IMO Dana is not the Daughter of Merri, If she is then Sasha has to be the Daughter of Tima, and we know that totally isn’t true.

To Koalabear: Hi!
Yes, with further research, and talking to Cambodian residents, and old-time watchers, there is some conflict in birthdates, with Sasha, and Dana. Some say Sasha is Popeye’s, and Dana is Merry’s. I believe Dana to be Merry’s little sister, now, and Tima mom to them both. Which makes sense, because recently, with Sherri and Jessie’s squabbles where Merry and Dana got involved, Dana was acting a whole lot more like Merry’s sister – actually grabbing and biting Merry, for going after Jessie! That would also explain why Dana hangs out with Merry so much. They seem more like equals, than mother and daughter!
Dana’s rank is obviously low, so that kinda seals it, for me, as far as Dana being Dolly’s. Again, this is all speculation, and nothing is written in stone, but it is the best game of “Clue” that I ever played! (Professor Knothead did it in the temple, with a mango!)

Love your charting! Very informative. I agree with you on part of the fam tree, but here’s my theory, based only on chatter I have seen in comments, and observation. Alphas are the youngest of the line, so that means that Amari could only have older siblings. And of course, all males have moved on, so that leaves Tima , Lucy and Dolly. And since I have heard that Lucy is Popeye’s mother. Is she also Merry’s mother?

The troops were well-established when he first started keeping track, he says pre-2004-2005. He also said Popeye has always been blind in one eye, no birth-name “Bonnie,” no “original three” which can be confirmed by old videos, showing many older monkeys in Amari Troop who are no longer around, Chimo and Felix were not born into Amari Troop (crazy rumors!)…but, I still believe Dolly, Maria and Jill are all Amari’s offspring.

People mistakenly say Popeye is Jill’s mom, because Amari was an indifferent mother…first daughter, so maybe that is why?…and Popeye took on the role of “allomother,” even allowing Jill to breastfeed. Jill was confused about it, too, so don’t feel bad. Also, Tima is not Amari’s mother. Amari became alpha when her mother, the prior alpha, died. I have never seen Amari pay any attention to Tima. She is very low-ranked, according to troop treatment of her. If you watch how other monkeys interact with her, you will see that every one of them strong-arm her, in some manner. Even Ashley, who should be lowest, being a released pet of a different sub-species. Some people also say Dana us Dolly’s, but Dana is treated like a low-ranked monkey, so I am leaning more toward Merry. I see Dana with Merry a lot. I never see Dana with Dolly, yet DeeDee and Sweetie are always with Dolly. (It’s like playing “Clue: Macaque Edition!”

EXCEPT when Tima had Timo Amari seemed to be by her side most of the time and after he was born Amari stayed like she was keeping watch. I’ve not seen her pay that much attention to any other monkey but her children. I have also wondered if Tima was her mom and maybe quit being alpha cause she was too old and weak. I have read that amongst the Lon Tails that the succession rules are not as struct as among the Rhesus, so it would certainly make sense that Tima just stepped aside to sit in the sun with friend Lucy while Amari took on the responsibility.
As far as Popeye, I have also wondered if Lucy was her Mom. She and Amari seem to hang out a lot and that would make sense if they were from two sisters (Tima and Lucy) who hung out together and raised children together.
Of course in Long Tails and Rhesus all the females in the troop are related in some manner, except of course stray females like Ashley that are allowed to join.
Just my thoughts on this Miss Quarky. 😉

Okay, so here is what I believe I believe that if an alpha female has a sibling (recognized as her sister within the troupe since females stay within their troupe from birth to death) that they are up next as alpha or possibly whichever sister to alpha or daughter to alpha steps up first to the plate gets it after the alpha dies or is removed (might as well be considered a death) from their troupe. I also believe that dolly and merry are sisters because they look so much alike and since dolly is more dominant of course there can’t be two in one position of rank I think it goes down the line of number one highest, number two high, number 3 mid-high, number 4 mid-low rank, number 5 mid-low rank, number 6 low rank and so on. I think Sasha is merrys and Dana is Dolly’s

I think Dolly & Merry are def sisters as well. I think Merry losing her hand is what caused her to become low ranking.. much like the alpha male once he loses a battle & is injured. Same with the older ones.. I have no idea where Lucy or Tima ranked originally but I think it’s the same as with the injured males.. once they get too old and/or weak to stand their ground.. they’re just another face in the crowd. Amari was a GREAT leader and kept order until she got sick. Dolly has a few good, leader qualities but she’s garbage. She isn’t scared of fighting ANY male though.. I will give her that.

She looked very depressed. I think Dolly and Merry are related ( they certainly look alike) and they both are confrontational about their children. Jill and Jack are definitely Amari’s.with out a doubt. I do wonder who Dana’s mother is…she looks alot like Jill.

Brutus was actually poisoned. I saw him during the poison taking effect, and in his death throes.
“Queen” has nothing to do with “Kings,” and everything to do with bloodlines. Alpha is inherited in female macaque society.
We know that Maria and Jill are Amari’s daughters, Sochhun said as much, in an older video, where he was talking about baby Kari (Maria’s daughter) getting a rise in status, if anything happened to Amari. However, when something DID happen to Amari, we were scratching our heads over Dolly taking over. But some of us think we have figured it out.
Long-time watchers have spreadsheets of birth dates. They have Dolly’s birth year as 2010. There is a video on YouTube from 2011 called “Monkeys at Angkor Wat” that shows Amari – much younger, and chunkier – nursing a male infant, while a juvenile is sitting near her, and running to her side, that looks *just like DeeDee.* Suzanne did some side-by-side screenshots, and the resemblance is remarkable! We all know that yearlings still spend a lot of time with their moms, who are nursing new infants (just as adult females spend a lot of their time with their mothers, once they start bearing infants, themselves). We believe that Dolly is Amari’s eldest daughter. That’s why it was easily accepted by the rest.
If you watch Dolly and Amari, together, when Amari was still alpha, they obviously hve a very close relationship, and act like mother-daughter (I thought it was sisters, but, with the birth year, and video…) Amari and Dolly would tit-for-tat, Amari let Dolly get by with WAY more than any other female, and Amari would defend Dolly, always, when there was an issue with another troop member.
Normally, it would be the youngest daughter, according to research papers, but Dolly is big, assertive, and fits the role, well.

There have been many replacements of bad monkeys to other areas Why I hasn’t santra been moved he injures baby monkeys in his troop So if you want interesting Ps I think sanktra needs to be put down permanently I don’t know why their allowing this behavior. Baby Ronnie and baby rollo are still in the wildlife sanctuary having medical treatment do to santra biting them to I pray Candy is there also. Baby Brandi and baby ale are also recovering there too. Well folks that about all I know. I haven’t seen anything knew on candy yet. Ty Trisha

Two different alpha monkeys with very close spellings of their names… leads to confusion
Sankra Alpha monkey attacking now
Santra – different monkey
Drives me crazy the way they choose names/ and then don’t bother spelling them correctly.

The Amari Troop was like watching a beautiful Soap Opera from the beginning to the end. So many wonderful characters. Sweet Pea, Popeye, Merry and all her children, especially Maci and Sasha, Beautiful Dane and baby Daniela, Beautiful baby Jessie, the Matriarch Amari and baby Lori, Tima and baby Timo, Jill and BJ and Jilla, Old Lucy, so many of the juvenile and big males. Achep, Marcus, Donald, Brutus, Felix, Jack, Aiden, Donny, Joey, some I prefer not to mention. There’s a story to each one, but now the majority of them are gone. At first I saw it like a Soap Opera, but then I began to look at it like a Movie with no Ending until most of the beautiful females, and characters died or were killed. It was Sad enough when a lot of them were dying away, but when Popeye died, She was the I-con, That’s when the Music Died, thus the Movie came to an End for me, a Sad Ending. But I will always remember the Beautiful Amari Troop

Good to know I am not the only one who feels this way. It’s just not any fun watching them now.

I feel the same way…sort of. I still love Amari Troop but their are not a lot of older female members anymore with Amari, Merri, Dolly and Popeye gone. It’s just the way life goes in monkey world. But Popeye, Merri and Kari’s death is really suspicious

Maci is still with Amari Troop..not missing. Why they haven’t returned Dana to Amari troop is perplexing…she’s been in this sanctuary place (someone back yard) in a cage…forever. She should have recovered by now. And (another troop)..=they took Lola away and haven’t returned her to Leyla too

Dana has not been in that backyard cage since 25 December 2019. They will never bring any of those monkey’s back.

Suspicious deaths? Fake rescues? Troop database that hasn’t been updated in 4 years? Yes, there is a reason. The Scambodian VOs had been exposed.
• Poisoning water & juice bottles
• Feeding them marbles to break teeth
• staging accidents & injuries to babies
• shaking trees & branches to cause babies to fall
• feeding lowborn babies in the presence of highborns to knowingly cause attacks
• Stealing babies on & off camera & relocating them to seem “abandoned
• Using slingshots & marbles to injure & knock monkeys out of trees
• WATCH “MONKEY CHRONICLES” CHANNEL ON YOUTUBE FOR VIDEOS THE SCAMBODIAN VOs DON’T WANT YOU TO SEE!
