Glad to see you got into the spirit of the question. :)

Things have been too serious around here lately. :)

Yeah, but I think that is the fate of most species. It's the rare
species that endures. In the evolutionary scale of things, primates are
relatively recent. They still have a long way to go, before it can be
said they endured.

As with most things, if you will, on Earth a few million years is not
much time.

That's true. Then, there's the coelacanth, 350 million years, and
counting.

I think they saw the way mankind was going and decided to stick to the
forests.

Just a guess.

Thought provoking question.

Not really. If evolving from a species, meant the extinction of that
species, there wouldn't be an evolutionary tree. It would be an
evolutionary telephone pole with no branches.

Take a look at the evolution of the horse. Most of the species that
branched off, died off.

Guys - it was a joke - you know - funny ha ha? A plausible
implausible?

Jeeze - relax - smell the roses.

Besides, we all know how the dinosaurs died.
