If man developed from monkeys, why do we still have monkeys?
user
If man developed from monkeys, it is because at one point the branch of the evolutionary tree that eventually led to humans had a split from the branch that produced current day monkeys. This split happened many millions of years ago and since then the two lineages evolved independently.

The development of man from monkeys is evolution, not necessarily de-creation. Monkeys still exist today due to their adaptability to different habitat and lifestyles. Furthermore, it’s possible that monkeys evolved before humans and could be potentially more primitive than early human species. Thus they can coexist with us today.
