A while back, Animal Planet and the Discovery Channel aired a fake documentary called Mermaids: The Body Found .

Enjoy! • Science stuff to read about: • Humans likely lost body hair in response to parasites: https://www.scientificamerican.com/ar... • Humans seem to have evolved for running: • http://www.slate.com/articles/sports/... • Pruney fingers appear to be an evolved trait.
