An Olive baboon, a kind of monkey

A monkey is a polypheletic classification of any long tailed primate that is not a prosimian. Varieties of them can be found in South America, Africa and Asia. Evolutionists believe that humans and monkeys, like all species, share a common ancestor, which is disputed by more accurate creation scientists. A lack of transitional fossils between apes and humans supports the creationist side.
