Turns out, Lucy wasn’t alone! Scientists just confirmed that two different human ancestor species—Australopithecus afarensis (Lucy’s crew) and Australopithecus deyiremeda—were actually living side by side in Ethiopia 3.4 million years ago. One had a big toe for climbing, the other was all about walking. They even ate different foods! Who knew our family tree was more like a tangled bush? Evolution was definitely not a straight line! #Science #FossilFind #HumanEvolution
