Huh, I knew about this a long time ago, but then, being a primatologist was something I considered doing at the time.
Truth of the matter is, extinction is the rule, survival is the anomaly. 90% of the species that ever walked the earth are already extinct. Probably a good thing in some ways, I don't think I would want to dodge a triceratops on my way to work!
