More than 3 million years ago, our adult human ancestors were walking on two feet and didn't have the option of a fashionable baby sling to carry their kids around in.
Instead, Australopithecus afarensis toddlers had a special grasping toe that helped them hold on to their mothers and escape into the trees, reports a study published July 4 in Science Advances.
The evidence comes from DIK-1-1 a relatively complete 3.3 million-year-old skeleton of a 2.5- to 3-year-old female Australopithecus afarensisdiscovered in Dikika, Ethiopia.
The skeleton, nicknamed Selam after the word for peace in Ethiopia's official language of Amharic includes the oldest and most complete foot bones of this species ever found.

my grandma lived to 99 and she couldn’t that!
Oh
Wait
My bad
Hold on, this “baby” was a chimp/ape, right?

Fake news for creation worship.

Junk science
GoreBull Warming is Junk Science. Not geology, astronomy, biology and palaeontology.
3 million year old toddler? Thats a shitload of diapers.
Wasnt a human. Just another attempt by scientists to disprove the Bible.
You beat me! It is nice to know I’m not the only one who sees things like that. The world is funny in mysterious ways.

Maco-evolution is junk science.
The first and second laws of thermo-dynamics, which competely invalidate the above are not junk science, which is why they are called laws of physics.
Have a great night.
Respectfully not interested in one of the ego crevo banters.
Done this too many times. They are fruitless.
Some of us believe we were created in the image of God.
Others believe that the chimps at the zoo are distant aunts and uncles.

Exactly!
Howard Cosell - see that monkey climb
It’s a monkey.
Oh look at you spoiling all the fun!
GGG Ping?
Sounds like my grand daughter after I give her a double espresso and turn her loose.
Hey, good for him - I’m not even seventy yet, and I can barely climb the stairs.
Yes.
Thanks a fool in paradise and TXnMA.
