Australopithecines lived in Africa primarily due to the continent's diverse environments, which provided a range of habitats suitable for their survival, including open savannas and woodlands. The availability of food sources, such as fruits and leaves, along with the presence of water, supported their foraging lifestyle. Additionally, Africa's climatic conditions during their time allowed for the evolution of traits that facilitated bipedalism, an essential adaptation for navigating their environment. Ultimately, Africa served as a critical region for the evolutionary development of early hominins.
Australopithecines can be distinguished from robust Australopithecines by their smaller size and more gracile (slender) jaw and teeth. Robust Australopithecines, on the other hand, have larger bodies, more robust skull features, and large, thickly enameled molars for chewing tough vegetation.
They can live anywhere from eastern Africa to South Africa
Yes elephant and lions live in africa because there is an african elephant.Yes, lions live in the Savannah, tall grass areas which is also in Africa. Lions can live in different tall grass areas too, but they do live in Africa.African Elephants live in Africa, but Asian Elephants live in Asia. Elephants can live in different Savannah areas too, but mainly yes in Africa
No, sloths do not live in Africa. They are native to Central and South America.
The African savanna in Africa, Canadathey live in the New Zeland biome
the australopithecines lived, or first appeared in Africa about 4 to 5 million years ago...........i think it was most likely East Africa
The Australopithecines lived throughout Africa.I'm pretty sure australopiticus came from some part of Africa.
Australopithecines are believed to have lived in Africa between 4 million to 2 million years ago. These early hominins are considered to be the ancestors of modern humans.
Africa
All the australopithecines lived in what is now modern day Africa and finds of africanus have been limited to Southern Africa.
Australopithecenes lived in the Cenozoic Era of the geological timescale.

No, australopithecines are not alive today. They are an extinct group of hominins that lived between about 4 million and 2 million years ago in Africa. Australopithecines are significant in human evolution as they are considered to be some of the earliest ancestors of modern humans. Their lineage eventually led to the emergence of the genus Homo, which includes modern humans.

Apes are old world primates (in Asia, Africa, and Europe). Monkeys are primarily in the new world (North and South America)>
Gorillas and chimps weren't around when the Australopithecines was
