Re: The Trigger for Human Evolution from the Ape... taller and thus see over a greater distance and thus be able to detect predators sooner. Once this freed up the hands from having to be used for locomotion, this allowed the first serious use of tools, and then motivated the evolution of an intelligent brain capable of producing and using these ...
