NightDocs | Humans with TAILS?! #shorts @NightDocs | Uploaded 3 years ago | Updated 12 minutes ago
Humans with tails
Believe it or not, humans are sometimes born with tails. It’s extremely rare, but it’s very much a real thing.
These vestigial tails are leftover dormant characteristics left behind as we as a species evolved into human beings. Evidence of this is seen in the coccyx more commonly known as tailbones.
You also have vestigial structures on your ear. This is called a Darwin tubercle, left over from our pointy eared primate ancestors. Can you wiggle your ears? That’s left over as well!
Vestigial traits are seen all over the animal kingdom. When animals evolved and came on land, some evolved to go back into the ocean. One such species that is the descendent of this is the Baleen whale which when you look at it’s skeletal structure, has undeveloped hind legs. Sperm whales have this as well as a pelvis.
Boom science
