Why are there no primates in Europe?

Humans are primates, so there are many primates in Europe. Apart from humans, and primates in zoos, there are very few other primates in Europe, with one well known exception being Gibraltar, where some monkeys do live. In general around the world, apart from humans, primates are normally only found in tropical and sub-tropical areas. Europe is not in any of these areas, so that is the main reason you find few non-human primates in Europe.

What evidence is there that humans evolved from apes and if so why are primates still present on earth?

The main evidence, though not conclusive, is from skeletal remain that show many similarities, and DNA composition.

Many people have some misunderstanding and confusion about evolution and wonder why all animals don't develop into more complex species. There are some that have not changed significantly in millions of years, like the sharks. They've stayed the same for close to 100 million years.

As far as the primates, if you think of family heritage playing a role, humans and the other apes descended from a common ancestor. That means that the family split and some changed into humans and other stayed mostly the same. Evolution does not say that all animals should evolve at the same rate or in the same way.

In addition, humans are both primates and apes. The classification is as follows: Order: Primates, Family Hominidae (the great apes); Genus: Homo, Species: Homo sapiens.

The apes and other primates alive today are not necessarily the same as they were at the time of the split from a common ancestor mentioned above. Pathways diverged countless millions of years ago. One led to humans, another led to the variety of contemporary primate species.

Monkeys are not meant to be kept indoors. You cannot control where they will urinate and defecate, and they can also be very destructive. They can catch and spread human diseases, most vets won't look at them, and they require special diets. They are also very social, so having only one would be psychologically harmful. Depending on where you live, owning a monkey as a pet may also be illegal.
