All the other primates out there that have evolved into their current species over the last million years that we evolved into ours?
We’re all evolving. I don’t know which primate species would be considered the “newest” currently but that’s also probably being revised all the time as we discover more. But I’m sure either we’re not the “latest” or it’s pretty close.
We’re not the latest in some chain of primate species, being the ultimate version. Thats not how evolution works.
Well ultimate meaning last chronologically, yes. Im not an expert but from googling casually, Homo sapiens appeared around 250k years ago and bonobos and chimps about 1.5M years ago. So i think we are chronologically the newest primates to appear, all normative judgments aside.
Well humans are the newest primates so anything we do similar to other primates, they did it first and it’s us who copied them.
No we’re not.
Heck, chimpanzees and bobobos only branched from each other like a million years ago.
Modern day non-humaj primates evolved from common ancestors, just like us.
What’s a newer primate than humans?
