"No one is here to "discredit science".

Some interesting new evidence compares humans and other apes regarding nest building behaviour and leaving the trees. This new research is exciting scientists who study how humans evolved. Early hominins may have slept on the ground before homo erectus.

"Other theories for the tree-to-ground transition have included the use of fire and the scarcity of trees in open habitats. The team demonstrated that neither is a prerequisite for ground sleeping, as the chimpanzees live in a plentiful evergreen rainforest and do not create fire."
