RE: Third Eye of Ancient Reptiles Reveals Clues About Evolution of "Warmbloodedness"

in #science7 years ago

Not exactly. In humans, we do not have any trace of the pineal eye...it disappeared long ago because our ability to internally thermoregulate made it unnecessary. We do still have our pineal gland, but as stated in the post, it serves a vital function and isn't vestigial. Inmany species of reptiles, the third eye still remains and is completely functional.
