there are old world monkeys and new world monkeys. they are not "two identical species of monkey." they share a common ancestor, but evolved separately for tens of millions of years.

the issue that you're *trying* to describe is how monkeys arrived in south america after it had drifted away from africa. no, they didn't build rafts. floating mats of vegetation are not uncommon, and plants and animals travel on them even today. given that this happened over millions of years, it's entirely feasible that more than a few monkeys made it over.

>i've dismissed decades of fossil evidence, genetic data, and geological modeling, and i think that old world and new world monkeys are "two identical species", just believe me bro
