Because we can outrun every other animal on earth. And doing all that running requires a lot of heat dissipation. Humans just run prey until they are exhausted and kill them when it’s easy. Combine that with spears and not many creatures have a lot of chance. And besides. We spread with fish first and foremost. So take your fish oil. 🙂
