IIRC, the only biological evidence we have for Denisovans is a finger bone.

Someone needs to come up w/a good Denisovan recipe.

Then we can say things like “I like my chicken like my women”.

Marinated in BBQ Sauce, Breaded, and Deep Fried Until Extra Crispy?

I don't think Mrs WBill would go for that.
