there was an article in a magazine (perhaps Science or Discover, I don't
remember) that postulated an aquatic/amphibious ape in Man's ancestry.  It
based this on the pattern of hair on the body, which is arranged in a sort
of flow pattern along the arms and other areas.  The author(s) suggested that
a pre-homonid ape developed a semi-aquatic lifestyle, possibly in a way
similar to that of the Japanese macques.
