Transcript:
Phoebe: I guess I get how you're not a horse. It's like how I'm not a chimpanzee, right? Marigold: I...think you are further from a chimpanzee than I am from a horse. Phoebe: Coming from you, I KNOW that's a compliment. Marigold: You are most welcome.
Absolutely not true. Many biologists believe that humans and the other great apes should be in the same genus, and we’re certainly very closely related, whereas perissodactyls (odd-toed ungulates, like horses) and artiodactyls (even-toed ungulates, like unicorns and also including pigs, hippos and whales) are worlds apart.
