      Hi @kibo
      Monkeys may carry on evolving, but I don’t think they would become human. We didn’t actually evolve FROM monkeys, rather monkeys and us evolved from a similar ancestor back in the past.

      I’ve written about it here – have a look:

      Thanks for the question, let me know if you want any more info!
