“Neanderthals ARE humans and Europeans carry their DNA”
The article says that we were seperate species and then that we interbred. It has to be one or the other, right? Neanderthals were a sub-specias of homo sapian sapian.

Wolves and coyotes interbred.
Are wolves and coyotes generally considered the same species or even sub-species of each other?

The article says that we were seperate species and then that we interbred. It has to be one or the other, right? Not necessarily. Closely-related species can interbreed, albeit not too often or too successfully. Wolves and dogs, tigers and lions, etc.
