                Extensive research done on various Australopithecus specimens has shown
                that these creatures did not walk upright in human manner. In fact, it is impos-
                sible for them to have done so, because they had the anatomy of apes, which
                  enabled them only to walk on all fours. The human skeleton, on the other
