Photos of evolution?
Orang Utans can swim Anne Russon New Scientist
Orang Utans normally avoid rivers because their body is too dense to float, and rivers are packed with predators. But click on the link at the end of this article and in just 6 brilliant photos you can see why Orang Utans might choose to overcome their fear.
The photos are cool, but have a think about whether this might explain a little about evolution.
How about fruit-eating Orang Utans hunting for fish? (Click the link to see the pic!). Fish food for the brain?
How about simple tools? Can you think about how you might use a stone as a drinking cup? 4 year-old Yuni knows how!
How about elders teaching the littlies? 2 year-old Erika gets the heads-up on how to get – um – posh!
6 photos – 6 ideas. Perhaps the steps to being human, perhaps not. But one click gets you six of the best photos from 2010, so congrats to New Scientist.
