RAE states chango means monkey in Mexico, but it has different meanings in different countries. So you are right chango means monkey at least in Mexico, and this is new to me. Thank you.

Marsopa and Jaqui are absolutely right. Chango is the most common way to say monkey in Mexico, and although mono is also understood, mono is used more as an adjective meaning cute (in Mexico).
