Are we humans simply remodelled apes? Chimps with a tweak? Is the difference between our genomes so minuscule it justifies the argument that our cognition and behaviour must also differ from chimps by barely a whisker? If “chimps are us” should we grant them human rights? Or is this one of the biggest fallacies in the study of evolution? NOT A CHIMP argues that these similarities have been grossly over-exaggerated - we should keep chimps at arm’s length. Are humans cognitively unique after all?

Chimpanzee feet allow scientists a new grasp on human foot evolution
Chimpanzee feet allow scientists a new grasp on human foot evolution: An investigation into the evolution of human walking by looking at how chimpanzees walk on two legs is the subject of a new research paper published in Journal of Human Evolution.
I think it is a wrong notion to consider that we have been developed and eveolved from chimps. God made us humans and He made chimps as they are.
ReplyDeleteInformative blog. Here you have discussed how chimpanzees help scientists to allow a new grasp evaluation of human feet. It is very interesting. Thanks for sharing. Apart from this article, I learned some facts about hamsters habitat which have become established as popular small house pets.
