| That would have laid the groundwork for the success of the archaic bipedal hominids. |
| To the right is an artist's impression of what some of the hominids might have looked like. |
| Finding the evolutionary origin of hominids is a little like stalking big game. |
| It's possible, for example, that early hominids living as bipeds in patchy forests became easier targets for leopards and other predators. |
| Some will come as a surprise, like the early small-brained bipedal hominids. |
| This group of hominids were definitely bipedal, had small canine teeth and, therefore, were early men. |
