Man descended from an old aardvark?

Aardvark


"EVERY mammal, including Man, is descended from a creature that was genetically similar to the modern aardvark, scientists have found."

"The aardvark, which means "earth pig" in Afrikaans, is a nocturnal animal that lives all over Africa, ranging from southern Egypt to the Cape of Good Hope. It grows to about 5ft or 6ft in length, which includes a 2ft tail, and resembles a hump-backed, long-snouted overgrown rat."
