How Humans Lost Their Fur: The Quiet Evolution That Changed Everything

Описание: At some point in our ancient past, humans did something remarkable: we lost our fur.
We once lived like other primates, covered in thick body hair for warmth and protection. And then… we changed. Not overnight, not suddenly—but quietly, over thousands of generations.

This video explores the theories behind why humans shed their fur, how climate, movement, survival pressures, and social behavior shaped our evolution, and how this seemingly simple shift changed everything about who we would become — from our ability to sweat and travel long distances, to how we formed communities, expressed emotion, and told stories about ourselves.

This is the story of how we became human.
