Using a new equation based on today’s primates, scientists can take a few molar teeth from an extinct fossil species and reconstruct exactly how fast their offspring grew during gestation.
Hate winter? The answer may lie in our evolutionary history.
New study shows Neanderthals and Homo Sapiens had a taste for sharp and bitter food.
