Yes, monkeys throw their feces and they bite viciously too so their canines usually have to be removed. Monkeys are wild animals and belong in the wild. I own a pet shop and always have people wanting to purchase a monkey because "they think they are so cute." Get bit or feces thrown just once and a person is on the way to changing their mind.
I know a local woman who had to small monkeys that slept in the bed with her. One day when she had been bit once too often, instead of a rescue organization, she had them euthanized. They were only about 6-7 years old. Monkeys are intelligent and cannot bear being confined in a cage. They throw the feces out of lack of nothing else to do.

Yes, but the behavior is typically restricted to captivity. This is because poop is easier to find in a cage, you just have to go in the corner and there it is. It the wild the poop you made in the morning may be a mile away when you need it.
