Three Theories Of Primate Analysis

According to our textbook, Europe, Asia, and Africa experienced dramatic changes in climate and ecology. For example, a shift in tectonic plates created the Alps, Himalayas, and the East African mountains chains. Other examples of dramatic climate changes include the shifting of ocean currents and the development of the polar ice caps. Specifically in Europe and Africa, the once lush tropical forest changed to cooler, dryer woodlands and grasslands. Our book claims that as a result of such climate change, tropical foods like fruit (apes favored diet) began to disappear. In Asia, decreased rainfall led to reduced forests, which in turn led to decreased availability of fruit in the region.
