		Ah, you know sooo much. Apes were the predominant species in canopy in 
Miocene, and at that time the whole life was in canopy, as far as I 
know, because the whole world was forested, there were no meadows. 
During Vallesian crisis all those Miocene apes went extinct. Except for 
our relatives and ancestors. Today apes still live on trees, SE Asian 
apes live in canopy.
		So, you are telling me what? That our ancestors survived Miocene 
carnage only to move back onto trees? No, apes survived only in rain 
forests, where people don't live. When our ancestors emerged open 
environment emerged, everybody tells you that.
		So, first you had bipedal ancestors, then what? Suddenly those bipeds 
decided to climb trees. Don't you say. Today's apes are the survived 
remnants of Miocene apes. We are bipeds, Danuvius (11.6 mya) is a biped. 
Where your brain collides with the facts?
