I am reading a book about paleanthropology, and I found this interesting little piece of knowledge ...

You may know that we humans share 99 % of our genes with the chimpanzee (yes, yes, the chimpanzee and the gorilla are our closest cousins [img]smile.gif[/img] ), but ...

... do you have an idea what it is we share 70 % of our genes with ? );

Aha ! [img]smile.gif[/img] Well, I'll let you guess before I tell ya ... :D

pigs...

I think Yack is right, that's part of the reason why pig organs can be used as temporary substitutes for human ones.... I think.
