Even if the monkey did it consciously, it did it with stolen equipment, on a mission somebody paid good money to go and setup. And of course the photographer set the camera's settings too -- pressing the button is the easiest part.

In fact, lots of nature photographers use "camera traps" with automatic trigger sensor when an animal walks nearby -- which is the same as the "animal pushing the trigger" and nobody seriously suggests those are photos the animals took.
