According to previous work on magnetic monopoles, static regular solutions are nonexistent if the vacuum expectation value of the Higgs field η is larger than a critical value η\rm cr, which is of the order of the Planck mass. In order to understand the properties of monopoles for η>η\rm cr, we investigate their dynamics numerically and classify those dynamical solutions into three types as follows. If η is larger than another critical value η\rm inf~(>η\rm cr), a monopole inflates and a wormhole structure appears around it. In the case of η\rm cr
