Question about evolution

[BrianSoddingBoru4]

Well, human are  hominids, but I take your meaning.  Part of the reason may be that hominids are a relatively recent group, compared to bears, fish, reptiles, and so forth (not to be pedantic about it, but humans are also primates).  Other groups have had more time to spread and adapt to new environs.  By the time human ancestors made it out of Africa and into Europe and parts of Asia, they had evolved into different species of human.  Given the comparatively brief amount of time that Homo and are most recent ancestors have been here, I think we've done surprisingly well (as far as geographical range goes, I mean - we suck donkey balls in lots of other areas).
