Which is a good way to tell apart apes and monkeys?

A good rule of thumb is that monkeys usually have tails and apes don't. If you see them in the trees, apes can swing from branch to branch, monkeys can't. The classification of "ape" and "monkey" isn't particularly well done; Old World monkeys are more closely related to apes than to New World monkeys, also whether humans should be classified as apes has been unclear over the years; chimpanzees are more closely related to humans than to gorillas.


Are monkey and apes family?

No. Monkeys and apes are two completely different species that look similar. One easy way to tell the difference is that monkeys have tails, whereas apes do not. Humans are also apes.


Are chimpanzees and monkeys the same thing?

No! Chimpanzees are great apes, along with Bonobos, Gorillas, Orangutans, and Humans. Monkeys are physically quite different from apes--one of the easiest ways to tell a monkey from an ape is that a monkey has a tail. An ape does not.


Do monkeys have a tail?

Barbary macaques have no tail. Also, apes. Don't let anyone tell you that we, apes, are not monkeys. We are old world monkeys. We are catarrhini monkeys. So there's your answer. Barbary macaques and apes. I don't know of any other monkeys with no tail.


Did monkeys devolop into humans?

No. Human evolution is a cladogenic process as far as we can tell. That is to say that we share common ancestry with monkeys who split into species which lead to modern apes of which we are one of the great apes of Africa. About 6-7 million tears ago the last common ancestor of both chimpanzees and humans gave rise to the two different species that you see today.


Were do monkey come from?

They come from the jungles of South America and Africa. It is believed that humans were descendants of the same common ancestor as monkeys or apes so next time you get called a monkey tell them they are one too.
