Humans evolved from lemurs

Or at least something like them. Yet another piece of the puzzle is found.

"The fossil, of a young female that probably resembled a modern-day lemur, is described as "the most complete primate fossil ever found."

Is David Attenborough set to reveal the Missing Link in human evolution? | Mail Online

One per generation I presume.

Edit: did the math. Assuming 15 years per generation and 47 million years, approximately 3 million missing links.

not at all... we don't need every single specimen to get a good idea of what happened, but every specimen we do have certainly helps.

Will journalists ever stop using that stupid and misleading 'missing link' meme? Or writing confused articles about subjects they haven't bothered to properly research?

Looking forward to seeing the actual fossil, which sounds interesting indeed, but is not likely to rock any boats too hard.

And more specimens keep popping up all that time that help close the missing gap.

bingo. your right. It would be one per a generation, as each generation changes slightly from the next. scientists has fond enough fossils to conclude that we share common ancestry with other life forms.
