1gnoirents posted:they would, given time, with the condition that they arent eliminated from other species or environmental changes No they wouldn't. If there is no impetus for change there is no evolution. A organism perfectly adapted for its environment has no pressure to evolve. Evolution is the response to environmental change. Being stronger, weaker, faster, or slower has not a god drat thing to do with evolution.

Chimps are naturally swole because they don't rely on tools to do things. Humans evolved past needing to punch other animals to death or dismember other chimps with our bare hands because we designed tools to do it for us. From an evolutionary point of view this is far better because it means we don't need to waste shitloads of energy maintaining being swole or growing swoleness. chimps are dicks.

No, it's worse than that, we actively save the weak, not just babies. We got some couple that are first cousins that gently caress and have hosed babies which we save, then we also save the babies when they have major organ failure at like age 10. Praise humanity.

I always wondered why humans were so weak for their size. Turns out that humans, when in physical condition for a hunt can out-endure almost any animal in running. We're not as fast, or strong but we will chase our quarry to the limits of their stamina.

It also a combination of technology and also physical characteristics. For example being able to carry water during the hunt and also sweating to avoid overheating. The deer on the other hand eventually collapses from dehydration and heat exhaustion.
