How Old Is Curious George

Curious George — who was originally named Fifi — turns 75 this year.

Is Curious George actually an ape?

The series refers to George as a monkey, but he lacks a tail, which would indicate that he is a barbary macaque or chimpanzee. George is probably a chimpanzee since he is from Africa. He is most likely referred to as a monkey so younger children may relate to him.

Is the man in the yellow hat married?

He has no wife. He does not seem to have a boyfriend, either. He is basically sexless and spends all his time with a monkey.
