  • The article discusses when and how the ancestors of the genus Homo, which includes modern humans (H. sapiens), became skilled hunters. Topics include debate about the role of hunting in human evolution, research by Neil T. Roach of George Washington University and colleagues that suggests a link between natural selection, human anatomy, and hunting, an overview of Homo evolution, and the impact of Homo's shift from a vegetarian diet to one that included meat.
