The reason why the Homo erectus and Homo neandertalis species went extinct is a big mystery. Homo erectus had a smaller brain than Homo neandertalis or Homo sapiens, so members of that species might not have been able to keep up with the competition. But there seem to be some instances where all three species lived in the same place at the same time. All we really know is that for about 40,000 years, Homo sapiens has been the only species in the genus Homo.

Interesting. Were the three homos like three different bears.....grizzlies, polar and black bears or was their relationship more distant? And was nature playing the odds when it created three homos?
