👉 The term "hominid" is a genus of primates that includes humans, chimpanzees, bonobos, and orangutans. They are known for their distinctive features such as large eyes, long noses, short arms, and wide mouths, which allow them to eat plant-based foods in the wild. The hominids are thought to have originated from a common ancestor that lived approximately 2 million years ago, before the development of agriculture and domestication.
