We Are Not Alone

quote [ Biologists reporting in the American Journal of Physical Anthropology have documented for the first time the swimming and diving behavior in apes. ]

Remember to wear your face shield at all times! This is not a drill. Chimps will eat your face.

Idiotic with a single piece of knowledge says: If all the aquatic apes becomes humans, WHY ARE THERE STILL AQUATIC APES, HUH?

Morganists want to teach our children in public schools that antediluvian man could have escaped God's judgement by swimming in the Flood!

It was commonly thought that humans were the only great ape that can swim. I remembered reading about swimming and fishing apes but when I tried to confirm the former assumption, I find this old article about that latter snippet.

The thinking was that their muscle density was too high and body fat too low to float well. And also that you could swim to safety from chimps. Now they'll just bite your face off in the water.
