How Do Monkeys Age?
Unlike dogs or cats, there is no one rule for how monkeys age. The word "monkey" includes many different kinds of monkeys from around the world, and each type grows and ages at a different speed.
To compare a monkey’s age to human years, we need to know what kind of monkey it is and how long that species usually lives.
Monkeys Grow Up Fast
Most monkeys grow up much faster than humans.
Humans usually become adults around 18 years old, but many monkeys become adults much earlier.
- Small monkeys like Marmosets become adults in less than 2 years.
- Bigger monkeys like Macaques and Capuchins usually become adults in about 4 to 5 years.
Growing up quickly helps monkeys survive and have babies earlier in life.
| Monkey Age | Human Age (Marmoset) | Human Age (Capuchin) |
|---|---|---|
| 1 Year | 7 Years | 4 Years |
| 5 Years | 35 Years | 20 Years |
| 10 Years | 70 Years | 29 Years |
| 20 Years | 140 Years | 47 Years |
| 30 Years | - | 65 Years |
