Framed Prints From Science Photo Library
Framed Print of Australopithecus and chimpanzee hands
Australopithecus (left) and chimpanzee (right) hands, artwork. Both have opposable thumbs, but the chimpanzees thumb is less well-developed and not as strong, meaning Australopithecus was better at grasping and manipulating tools and other objects. Australopithecus is a genus of extinct hominin species that formed an early part of the human evolutionary tree, between 2 and 4 million years ago.
