But I asked you, how do you end up turning the above statement about the modern human into:
> I'd really like to see a human try to tear raw flesh off an animal with their canines. I am highly skeptical that would work at all.
I didn't suggest humans walked around tearing off raw meat. However, our ancestors probably did at some point.
Since our ancestors tamed the fire about 2 million years ago, we have started cooking using fire, which changed our anatomy.
