lemur-man

This is it! This is what we have all been waiting for!

They have finally found it! The whole world is talking about it, even Google is featuring it on their main page today. It is proof beyond a shadow of a doubt. It has been settled, it is conclusive, it is... "Ida," the small "missing link"

That's right, ladies and gentlemen, your ancestor is a small squished monkey.

From the National Geographic website:
"This is the first link to all humans," Hurum, of the Natural History Museum in Oslo, Norway, said in a statement. Ida represents "the closest thing we can get to a direct ancestor."




Here is a picture of the little guy from that same National Geographic site:


I don't know. I don't really see the family resemblance.
