The great adventure of the origin of man

Thirty million years ago a new group of creatures appeared on planet Earth: the great apes. From their ranks arose one family, gifted with exceptional skills: our protagonists. This family would change the face of our world forever.
Here, for the very first time in television history, is the saga of our origins, told through the story of one single family - an epic journey upon which the latest scientific discoveries shine an exciting new light.

Other animals are capable of empathy or at least picking up on our emotions. I’ve experienced it many times. Man kind still believes that we are so different from other species. I’ve been around wild animals & domestic animals all my life & from this experience have learned that animals have complex emotional lives & obviously don’t want to suffer any more than we do

Der Unterschied von Tier zu Menschen ist: - Die Tiere haben kein Gewissen. - die Tiere haben keinen Glauben. - die Tiere können nicht reden und haben kein Vokabular und haben keine Satzzeichen und in der Entwicklung nichts mitgemacht. - die Tiere haben keinen freien willen. Sie haben einen Instinkt. - etc.etc.

Well all mammalian brains are going to function similarly. Ours are on a level almost unseen in any other creature. We don't really know how intelligent dolphins are, though.

Quest for fire, looking at it as a kid it was enticing. Looking at it as an educated adult, it's viewed with laugs as a comedic satire.
