You can't have the same relationship as you do with dogs
I've heard we are descendants from monkeys and similar primates but I somehow doubt that is true. Sure we can have relationships with monkeys but not quite the same as we have with dogs. Monkeys don't do doggie things like chasing balls but they have their little traits that dogs do not have like picking their friends fleas off them, smacking their best mates across the head and making those rude noises. All these make up for Funny Monkey Pictures!
Monkey Dentists need not apply
Sometimes these adorable primates can climb faster than humanoids, eat more natural foods, are very hairy—(some of us humans are like that) have stronger ripping and chewing teeth and seldom need to go to the dentist, can spot a flea on a buddy at 100 yards and can jump higher than a human pole vaulter!
They are quick witted and mischievous, illiterate and dangerous but can sometimes paint if given the right opportunity. Going down through the Garden Route to Cape Town in South Africa, we were confronted by a whole army of rhesus monkeys, dozens of them; they landed on the car roof and were screeching for food. It was bit scary at the time because they do have a nasty bite.
Five hands for great Tree Travel
Did you know the "New World Monkeys" (they are not from those 'New World Order' monkeys) they have a tail that wraps around branches to assist their travels from tree to tree whereas the 'old world monkeys can't? You can call them "five handed creatures." They've adapted whereas we humans haven't. Maybe we have a missing genome link?
They're really cute
See this images and clips below of funny monkeys pictures and you will agree they can be cute or completely nuts depending on whether they've had a good day or not. A bit like humans eh?
Here is a funny monkey quote from Winston Churchill: "Never hold discussions with the monkey when the organ grinder is in the room."
"The surest way to make a monkey of a man is to quote him." From Robert Benchley
"Democracy is the art of running the circus from the monkey cage." H. L. Mencken
