Why did we evolve to be furless just to have to kill animals and wear their furs to survive the cold in ancient times? Anyone have a good reason for this?3. And its not for sure ht we have evolved out of apes that used to have furs on their body. may be we have come out of some reptile. the current theory of "human eveolved outta ape" is just a predicaiton due to DNA match. but it never means that we are for sure from same ancestors.
We share a common ancestor with modern apes... not lizards.
Welcome btw.

Yes but traceable as hairless apes or traceable as in Australopithecus?
