Macaca fuscata -- snow monkey, or Japanese macaque, mountains of Nagano, Japan, due west of Tokyo, March, 2016. These monkeys have adapted to the cold more than any other subspecies, and they have adapted to almost totally ignoring humans (which is good for photography).

How can one deny that they are our relatives?

I dunno, but somebody will find a way!

Believe me, I would rather recognize them as relatives than one or two actual cousins that I could name.

Gosh. Two days posted and still no-one has asked
If we have macaques, why do we still have Creationists?
