No all extant humans are *Homo sapiens sapiens*
@edge lord I wouldn't say sub species as they aren't really different enough genetically to be classified as that
shining
justice
mebae
The other subspecies *H. sapiens idaltu* died out thousands of years ago
ok
If other races aren’t subspecies
What do they classify as
@edge lord...races, they are races...
No don’t think of it like that
Different populations that have adapted in small ways to their environments. They are not different enough to be different subspecies though
We have far more in common than is readily apparent
Then what is a scientific word to label those groups that have developed differently
aren’t pigs our closest relative
like 99.something
@edge lord look my guy there has never really been a species developing in such a way as humanity, we've entirely defied natural order, so we're a bit of a wild card, just call it races and leave it at that
similar genes
@tekashi I thought it was apes
I’m gonna look into it
nah
Our closest living relatives are chimpanzees and bonobos
Gn my homies
Nini
if there was a specific ape it would be that one ape
Actually ima head off as well
with the big red as ss
Gn
not the baboon
i don’t remember when it was called
Orangutan?
no
big red asscheeks
hang on
yeah i don’t remember what it was
In any case, we are more closely related to the genus *Pan* which includes chimpanzees and bonobos.
As I said, there used to be another subspecies of *H. sapiens* but they died off thousands of years ago
bruh...
pigs though
No
