I just received a notification of an interesting research:
Findings Challenge Conventional Ideas on Evolution of Human Diet, Natural Selection
Description
A University of Arkansas professor and his colleagues used a combination of microscopy and fractal analysis to examine marks on the teeth of members of an ancient human ancestor species and found that what it actually ate does not correspond with the size and shape of its teeth. This finding suggests that structure alone is not enough to predict dietary preferences and that evolutionary adaptation for eating may have been based on scarcity rather than on an animal’s regular diet.
A more extensive summary is available
hereJust currious to see if others have some comments...
